Add-on summary

Analyze keywords

Maximize your browsing efficiency and maintain a decluttered workspace with Reuse Tabs, the Edge add-on that ensures you never have the same website open in multiple tabs unnecessarily. By smartly refocusing on an existing tab with the URL you're about to open, Reuse Tabs helps to streamline your digital workspace, reduce redundancy, and keep your browser running smoothly.

How Reuse Tabs Works:

When you attempt to open a link, Reuse Tabs quickly checks if that URL is already open in another tab. If it is, the add-on automatically brings the existing tab to the forefront, preventing you from having multiple tabs of the same page. This not only helps to reduce clutter but also conserves system resources and enhances your browser's performance.

Key Features:

  • Intelligent Tab Management: Detects and focuses on tabs with matching URLs instantly.
  • Resource Efficiency: Saves memory and processing power by reducing the number of open tabs.
  • Enhanced Productivity: Keeps your workspace organized, helping you find the right information faster.
  • Easy to Use: Works in the background with no additional inputs required from the user.

Die aktuelle Version scheint nicht mehr auf den existierenden Tab zu springen sondern macht nur keinen neuen mehr auf - die Suche kostest mehr Zeit als die Doubletten stören ...

Unfortunately, this extension was close but yet so far from what I needed. The app works well and does what it says it will do, which is enough to be extremely valuable to many but there's a missing feature that to me makes the app unusable until it's added. When I click a link with a URL for a website already opened in a different tab, then I want to go to that tab! This extension CLOSES THE CURRENT TAB before focusing on the already present tab. The idea is so good though. Update: For good measure yes, I did try to change link settings in bing settings

Great. Does exactly what it says. There appears to be no way to set up Edge to ensure it only opens one tab for any given url. This extension does that job where others fail.
