Automatically closes inactive tabs after a chosen time to reduce tab clutter. Auto Close Unused Tabs is a lightweight productivity extension designed to help users keep their browser clean and focused by automatically closing tabs that have not been used for a chosen period of time. When many tabs remain open, browsers can become slow, cluttered, and distracting. This extension solves that problem by monitoring tab activity and safely closing inactive tabs after a user-defined number of minutes. Active tabs are never closed, and users stay in full control of how the extension behaves. Users can enable or disable the feature at any time, adjust the inactivity timeout, and choose to protect pinned tabs or tabs that are currently playing audio. All settings are stored locally in the browser and never shared or transmitted. Auto Close Unused Tabs runs quietly in the background using Chrome’s built-in alarm system, ensuring efficient performance with minimal resource usage. It does not collect personal data, track browsing behavior, or communicate with external servers. This extension is ideal for users who want a cleaner browsing experience, improved performance, and automatic tab management without unnecessary features or complexity.
