Review Summary
SimpleUndoClose is praised for its simplicity, effectiveness in reopening closed tabs, and clean design, serving users well for years. However, recent updates and browser changes have caused it to malfunction, losing the ability to restore tabs properly and failing to remember multi-page tab histories. Users also complain about tabs reopening in the wrong order and visibility issues with the extension icon in dark themes. While it once offered extensive undo history, recent versions appear limited, prompting some users to switch to alternatives.
Pros
- SimpleUndoClose effectively allows users to reopen accidentally closed tabs easily without unnecessary complexity.
- The extension has been a reliable staple for users over many years before recent issues.
- It features a simple and clean interface that users appreciate, including a black arrow button that stands out.
- Offers a comprehensive undo list to view multiple closed tabs, unlike some alternatives that only restore the last closed tab.
- Supports unlimited or very large history record settings, allowing extensive tab recovery.
Cons
- Recently, the extension stopped working properly and no longer saves or restores closed tabs consistently.
- It does not restore tabs to their original position, instead reopening them at the extreme right end of the tab bar, which users find inconvenient.
- The extension does not preserve tab navigation history (forward/back), only restoring the last page viewed, losing multi-page tab history.
- In dark mode or themes, the extension icon can be invisible or hard to see due to lack of contrast or outline.
- Limited support for tabs that closed before the extension's recent history; sometimes only the last 10 closed tabs are retained and earlier ones are lost.
