Tab Activate: Open New Tabs Immediately
Tab Activate is a free Chrome add-on developed by Tab Activate. It addresses the frustration of new tabs opening in the background instead of immediately switching to them. With Tab Activate, new tabs open right away, providing a seamless browsing experience.
One of the main features of Tab Activate is its ability to override Chrome's default behavior and ensure that new tabs open immediately. This is especially useful for users who prefer to have instant access to their newly opened tabs. By simply installing the add-on, users can enjoy a more efficient and streamlined browsing experience.
Tab Activate requires permissions to read and change all data on the websites you visit. These permissions are necessary to detect when the Shift key is pressed, which is the key used to open new tabs in the background. It's important to note that no website data is read or changed by Tab Activate.
The latest version of Tab Activate, version 3.2, includes code refactoring and no longer requires bookmarks permission. It also provides improved Shift key detection and error handling. Previous versions have introduced features such as support for bookmarks, new tab positioning, and the ability to override Tab Activate with the Shift key.
Overall, Tab Activate is a valuable Chrome add-on for users who want to have immediate access to their new tabs. It effectively reverses Chrome's default behavior and enhances the browsing experience without compromising user data or privacy.
