User reviews
Works in Edge (v.128) as of September 17, 2024. Works with both horizontal and vertical tabs. The name changes are preserved after browser restart. Make sure to read the instructions in the Description section above (particularly, the "any tabs opened before installation of the extension need to be refreshed" part). All in all, just as Julie stated here in the reviews on November 5, 2023, make sure you use this extension as expected and you should be good.
