Review Summary
Close Tabs is praised for its simplicity, restoring useful tab-closing features removed from Chrome, and effectively managing tab clutter. However, users often mention the lack of cross-window tab closure by domain, absence of keyboard shortcuts, and a somewhat cumbersome interface requiring multiple menu clicks. Support for pinned tabs and menu customization are other commonly requested improvements. Overall, it is recognized as a practical and reliable extension, though with room for enhanced functionality and user experience.
Pros
- Simple and easy to use, it efficiently closes tabs as intended.
- Restores the 'Close Other Tabs' functionality removed from Chrome, filling a useful gap.
- Provides options beyond Chrome's native tab closing, such as closing tabs to the left or right.
- Works reliably without major reported bugs or adware for most users.
- Helpful for managing tab clutter quickly and effectively on a daily basis.
Cons
- Lacks ability to close tabs across all open browser windows for the same domain, a requested feature.
- No option to assign keyboard shortcuts to common actions, limiting efficiency for some users.
- Interface can be cumbersome; requires multiple clicks through menus rather than one-click actions.
- Does not officially support closing pinned tabs, limiting functionality in some cases.
- Users desire more customization of the context menu to choose which close options appear.
