Tap To Tab - Simplify Tab Navigation for Touch Devices

'Tap To Tab' is an innovative Edge add-on for tablets and laptops. It allows users to double-click any link to open it in a new tab, mimicking the 'open link in a new tab' option in the browser's menu. This add-on eliminates the need for an external mouse or complex gestures, providing a seamless browsing experience. The add-on permits users to specify the location of the new tab and the operation of the newly opened tab. Moreover, users can also add domain names into a blacklist for increased control over their browsing experience.
