UniqTab: A Chrome Add-on for Unique Tab URLs
UniqTab is a free Chrome add-on developed by Devin Garg. It falls under the category of Browsers and is specifically classified as an Add-ons & Tools subcategory. UniqTab offers a simple yet effective solution to the common issue of duplicate tab URLs.
With UniqTab, each tab URL is made unique, ensuring a clutter-free browsing experience. The add-on provides a user-friendly interface that allows users to easily toggle the extension on or off. Additionally, users have the option to refresh the tab when a duplicate URL is encountered. UniqTab also allows users to whitelist specific URLs, exempting them from the extension's functionality.
One noteworthy feature of UniqTab is its handling of duplicate URLs. When a duplicate tab URL is detected, the extension preserves the existing tab and moves it to the same position as the newly created duplicate tab. The duplicated tabs are then removed, ensuring a streamlined tab management experience.
UniqTab considers URLs for equality by ignoring everything after the last hashtag in the URL. This ensures that even slight variations in URLs are recognized as duplicates. It is worth mentioning that turning off the "Power" feature does not immediately remove duplicate URLs, but it works on further tab URL updates.
To avoid any potential data loss, users have the option to turn off the "Refresh Tabs" feature. Additionally, turning off and then on the "Run This URL" feature removes all duplicate URLs, except for the current tab.
It is important to note that UniqTab does not collect or transmit any user data, ensuring privacy and security.
