- (2025-07-01) Philip Ross (baseballlover723): ~~Used to work well, but now it stops updating the badge until it's clicked after a while. On version 1.3.5.~~ It's been working well since then on 1.3.6 though.
- (2025-06-06) t: Does not scale up well, becomes extremely laggy at high numbers of tabs. I have 2600 tabs. While enabled, this extension will cause the act of closing/opening a tab to make the browser freeze for about 4 seconds. Additionally, starting up the browser with this extension enabled will cause it to show a black screen (which cannot be interacted with) for about 50 minutes for me (30 seconds or so without it). While it is doing this, it uses 100% of a CPU core; I have a Ryzen 9 9900X, which has one of the highest single-thread speeds on the market. Unacceptably slow. Should work fine for a lower tab count, but most other tab counter extensions would work for that.
- (2025-05-01) Daniel L. (Rhialto): Was great all those years and it is still but now that Firefox have Groups for Tabs it would be cool to have the same counter for it as I plan to move most of tabs to it. I hope the dev can make it for Firefox also, it would be the first one to count tabs, groups, pinned, etc. PLEASE!
- (2025-02-16) Sandy Knowles: You have to click the icon to see the true number of total tabs. It does not update the number on its own.
- (2025-02-14) Jhon Smith: Version 1.3.4 - The same bug. DOEN'T WORK. From Version 1.3.3 (from 11 February 2025) it stopped working properly. It counts the open tabs correctly, but shows "0" (zero) in the pin. I need to open its window to see the actual number. Not good, not at all. Current window open tabs: 55 Current window pinned tabs: 0 CHROME: Version 109.0.5414.120 (Official Build) (64-bit)
- (2025-02-12) Jackel501: Does what it says on the tin
- (2025-02-11) Alice Fiecchi: I love this extension. The new update is amazing, but all of a sudden it's not counting my tabs anymore :( Is there some sort of bug going on? I hope it'll be fixed. Edit: it's fixed ^^
- (2025-02-11) Vlad: the recent update broke the tab counter and reset my all-time tabs and custom color. very sad.
- (2025-02-08) alexandra pinto: theres a bug its not counting tabs correctly. i deleted a lot and it still said i had like 100 open. please fix
- (2025-02-08) Yevgen: 1.3.2 version has an issue. It not counted tab's normally. From start it shows current value (even this not always). And counter not updated after. Nice extension. But please check for issue.
- (2025-02-08) billyhatcher643: Recent google chrome update ruined a once wonderful plugin that i use all the time thanks alot google for ruining yet another wonderful plugin i use
- (2025-02-08) Coben Spoonster: It's not detecting my tabs anymore. It says I have 3 open but the number by the extention icon is gone. I also have 20 tabs and it says I have 3 open
- (2025-02-07) The BSOD Fan Productions: After automatic update fron 1.2.2 to 1.3.1, it loses the all-time tabs from 2023 which i have 100k+ tabs in the counter😭 Now it resets to 0
- (2025-02-07) ShadowWolf-Emi: Why is it limited to 40 tabs now? I mean why can't it count above 40 tabs??
- (2024-11-19) Eliott Willis: It displays total number of open tabs in all open browser windows, I wish it could show per window count, i.e. the counter only showing the number of tabs in current active window. Also, the counter includes pinned tabs, I wish I could exempt pinned tabs from total count.
- (2024-09-21) ninzin: perfect
- (2024-08-20) brianna (b r i): i love this extension so sad google is getting rid of it ☹️
- (2024-08-20) cdorman11: Clean, simple, easy to use, and Google is going to get rid of it.
- (2024-05-12) Frans Nathanael: Works well, and it's lightweight too.
- (2024-05-09) enthos enthos: Very GOOD tool for me. I read the news about 7470 tabs on firefox and then find this good tool. I win. Open windows: 133 Open tabs: 7652 Current window open tabs: 79
- (2024-03-28) Michael Brzeski: Brilliant. Great replacement for SessionBuddy.
- (2024-03-13) Peter Ledergerber (Ramanuta): Great addon, i used Sessionbuddy until now for this, but after their last update the icon no longer displays the number, so i did need something that does that. And this extension does exactly that. Can really recommend this one.
- (2023-11-17) Iris Burdick: not quite sure whats happening, i have about 2000 tabs open but its only reporting 7 total, even though it says the current window is 150. worked flawlessly before today. possibly a new update causing issues?
- (2023-11-15) Matthew Lewington: I just love tracking my tabs so much. I know I shouldnt have 200 open but I do
- (2023-11-10) Harley _: The number is really difficult to see. Would've better if there's only the number, that means no folder icon, the whole widget will just be a a number!

- (2023-10-04) Misha Chirpy: It's functional and very easy to use. It doesn't pretend to be anything other than a tab counter, which I like a lot. The interface also isn't fancy or modern at all which makes it easy to read as well. I have used this extension for several years at this point and it's hard to live without it at this point. I personally use it because I like statistics and I'm a tab hoarder so I want to know how many hundreds of tabs I have open, but it can also be useful for people who want to limit the number of tabs they have open at any time.

- (2023-04-01) esgalmir: probably the best extension of it's kind. counts total tabs and current window tabs separately. one of few counter extensions that doesn't slow down browser in any way. custom color background works in most browsers

- (2023-01-07) Rainbow Warrior Princess: Only shows tab count from all windows, not possible to only show number of tabs from the current window in the extension icon.

- (2022-06-12) Balentay: This extension is rather helpful and has been my constant companion for over a year now. But with the latest Chrome update it's rather hard to read the badge number Before the update my background was red with white numbers but now it's red with black numbers I wish there were an option to change the number color as well as the badge color. Ideally there'd be an option to change the font size as well but even just being able to change the font color would do wonders for visibility
- (2022-04-26) Cupcake's Biggest Fan: Great, does what it's meant to – I originally given it two stars because though it worked, I thought it was the cause behind malware that was hijacking my browser, but it ended up being another PDF converter extension that I'd added to Chrome months ago! Apologies to anyone who may have seen that review! To anyone who may be struggling with a similar issue, I found out which extension was causing the problems by disabling each one and testing them out individually. I would also be suspicious of extension that aren't trusted by Enhanced Safe Browsing and have the permissions to change website content.
