User reviews
Tab Rename Wiz is praised for its simplicity and effectiveness in renaming and organizing browser tabs, which enhances productivity especially when used with Edge Workspaces or vertical tabs. Users appreciate that renamed tabs often persist after reloads, allowing for easier tab management. However, several reviews mention that renamed tabs do not always survive browser restarts, causing some inconvenience. Users also suggest minor usability improvements such as auto-closing the rename input form after saving and express interest in extra features like icon modifications. Overall, it is regarded as a valuable and functional tool.

I am a new Celigo developer and they don't properly name their tabs to distinguish between one flow vs another. So this extension is EXTREMELY HELPFUL and does the job very well. Thank you, Dev!

It works. Very simple and the tabs persist. Coupled with Edge Workspaces this becomes very powerful as you can Bookmark the full tab URL (including all of any SharePoint filtering information or other site specific data and save the bookmark to the Workspace. It is one of those Extensions that make you say "Why didn't Microsoft do this". Well done.
