Description from store

Tab Search provides easy tab navigation, it enables searching open tabs using tab URLs and titles.

Ctrl/Cmd+. shortcut opens Tab Search popup. Use arrow keys to navigate the tabs and Enter to switch to the chosen tab.

The default keyboard shortcuts could be customized in chrome://extensions/shortcuts.

Changes in Tab Search 0.3
- Searching across tabs in all windows (as requested by many users)
- Changing default shortcut to Ctrl/Cmd+. since the previous one was tampering with Google Docs and Quip functionality.

Symbol Is not visible and cannot be used. If i want to remove the extension than the symbol appears but has no fucntionality. Weird!
Alex Yen
for all, CMD + SHIFT + A on Mac gets you native chrome tab search. no need for this extension
Apostolis Anastasiou
Doesn't work. (I'm a software engineer, I tried, no user error Im pretty sure). "Cmd + ." or "Control + ." don't work on Mac/OSX. Dev, check please if they're the same KeyCodes or something.

The Extension Author has been responsive to User Requests. But he seems to have stopped at version 0.3 back in January 2020. Two suggestions made in other reviews are: 1. The dropdown is too small. 2. It would be nice if you could delete a tab from the list of tabs in the extension's dropdown. 2a. Related is to be able to select more than one tab for deletion using Shift+select or Ctrl+select (Windows). (This is a luxury not critical since you can easily just go to the window and do it from there.)

ilu. default hotkey definitely works out of the box edit: updated review -- whenever you open the extension to search, it takes 5-10 seconds to load depending on how many total tabs you have open across all windows. lazy load doesnt make sense here; real time update of tab list will make it more performant. will update rating if fixed

very helpful but unfortunately the shortcut is not working

The chortcut ctrl+. does nothing. I'm not sure if that conflicts with other apps/extensions. The shortcut needs to be configurable.

Great concept. Default hotkey doesn't work out of the box. You should provide menu where you can set hotkey.

This is the best plugin I have found so far to manage my insane number of browser windows and tabs. Thank you! Some suggestions to improve it further would be to make the list longer (it currently only shows four tabs). Maybe show 10 tabs along with a scroll bar? Also, the ability to "x" out a tab and close it immediately would be helpful. Great job and thank you for creating this utility!

This works great, better than the other tab finder extension I was using. And I', someone with too many tabs open all the time! I like the clean look of the results. However, it is maddening that the results appear in this tiny drop down window that cannot be resized. The window only fits like 3 results without having to drag the scroll bar. PLEASE let us change the size of this, this is essential for usability. Ideally we should drag it larger and it would then remember this size and come up that way next time we use it. Thanks!

Not very useful since it cannot search other windows. Other more complex tab managers easily implements this.

Decent App, but need to allow ability to change shortcut key. When using Ctrl I for italics in any built in word doc., it tries to search.. Ill change the review and stars after being contacted in regards to this

No option to show all address with tab name. No option to remember last searched query. No option to sort tabs (in the list) by the "last usage" order. No option to resize the popup window. Need more results. No option to change fonts and/or this huge padding.

Pretty useless. Doesn't search across all windows, only lists a few of the tabs in the current window and not even all of them. Also since the hotkey isn't configurable, the default Ctrl+I conflicts with things like Google Docs.

Not useful because it only searches the tabs that are open in the current window. I have a dozen windows open and need something to search all tabs in all windows.

Perfect. Not sure why this isn't an out-of-the-box feature.
