Description

Automatically close tabs that just launch apps and are otherwise useless. Specify which urls to match, and how fast to close them. When a new tab opens, this extension compares that tab's URL to your custom list of URLs or URL parts. If there's a match, this extension will automatically close that tab after a small custom delay (default: 5 seconds). Joining a lot of Zoom meetings from Google Calendar? Is Zoom leaving a lot of useless tabs open in Chrome? Linear? Other apps? Forget about it. Ease your cognitive load. Keep your Chrome space clean. Issues? Report them here: https://github.com/gerbus/close-app-launcher-tabs/issues Cheers! Christopher X Gerber
