Taylor Raack 2026-03-24: Unfortunately, it's broken. I'm using Brave 1.88 which doesn't have any other issues with other Chrome extensions. I filed an issue with the developer to fix this.
Rahul Dattatraya Ghanate 2026-01-16: Does the job. I was looking for option where Zoom can be added as a browser for links with zoom.com URLs. But in meantime this is the best solution.
Shay Mandel 2026-01-14: Works great, simple and useful! Would be nice to be able to add more sites to the list based on user definition. Zoom is not the only annoying app that opens a tab and leave it open - I have the same issue with OKTA sso and Zscaler VPN.
Renata Ware 2025-10-30: Closes page automatically, but never remembers how the selected auto close time (ie I always select 5 seconds and it always defaults back to the maximum time).
Patrick Gross 2025-09-15: Took me 3 extensions until I found one that actually works. This one wins!
Josh Quintus 2024-03-29: Does what it says on the tin. Can't ask for more.
Jacob Farber 2024-03-15: Works exactly as described
Caitlin McElwee 2023-10-10: Works. Even lets you choose how long it waits before auto-closing (looked like 20s - 5s - 25s)

Ricardo Zerpa 2022-06-21: I'm missing a closing within 1 sec or automatically instead of 5 seconds.
Austin King 2022-06-13: Gets the job done quickly and quietly. Love it. I'd love it even more if it could close the "login with SSO" tabs too!

Scott Vitale 2022-03-08: This extension handles the #1 most annoying thing about Zoom - the browser tab litter. Thank you, thank you, thank you! I couldn't live without this extension.

Alexandria Pagram 2022-03-07: Love love love this extension! I am in and out of Zoom calls all day for work. I've been using the original extension for months (same codebase on github) and noticed IMMEDIATELY when Google took it down after their Terms & Conditions update because my irritation with the Zoom tabs skyrocketed haha. I am so relieved to redownload it. Ya'll are doing God's work 😁 thank you! Note for those that haven't used the original: it's exactly the same but the original had the word 'Zoom' in the name of the extension so Google threw a fit and took it down 😋

Chris Gow 2022-03-07: This extension is such a productivity saver! I am in multiple Zoom meetings a day and with this extension I can just forget about the tabs that Zoom spams.
Billy Zajac 2022-03-07: Been using this for a while (when it had a different name, but was the same github repo). Love it!
Jade Lannen 2022-03-07: Absolutely necessary extension, works 100% as described and expected. Been using it for several months now (this is an updated version, re-published after the first was mistakenly taken down by the Chrome store), and I've gotten everyone on my team to use it as well.
