Too Many Tabs & History to Find? AI Grouping + Fuzzy Search Solves Tab Switching Instantly!

πŸ˜΅β€πŸ’« Daily Pain Points

Have you ever experienced this:

  • Opened 20+ tabs and want to switch to a specific tab, but can only rely on intuition to check them one by one?
  • Bookmarked thousands of items across various categories, but when you need them, it's like finding a needle in a haystack?
  • Browser history contains tens of thousands of records, making searching harder than climbing to heaven?
  • Accidentally closed some pages you originally wanted to keep and want to quickly restore them?

If so, this extension might be able to solve your problems!

πŸŽ‰ Main Features

Fuzzy Pinyin Search

Supports Chinese and English mixed fuzzy search, super friendly for Chinese users (powered by text-search-engine). The search results are sorted by weight value (higher weight for more consecutive character matches) and recent usage time in descending order, allowing you to locate targets faster. Search capabilities include:

  • Domain search & Space-separated word search (no need to match in order after word segmentation)

Global Second-level Search

Search data sources include:

  • All opened tabs
  • All bookmark records
  • By default, searches the last 1000 history records within 14 days, you can type /s search to modify the configuration

Also supports targeted search: type /t to search only opened tabs, similarly type /b and /h to search bookmarks and history respectively.

AI Grouping

Intelligently groups all tabs in the last focused window based on domain names, titles, and existing grouping situations with incremental grouping, greatly saving time on manually creating and updating tab groups. Of course, if you're not satisfied with the AI grouping, you can return to the initial snapshot state within 16 seconds of grouping.

Full Keyboard Operation

  • Default activation via Command+Shift+K (Windows: Ctrl+Shift+K), you can type /s keyboard to customize
  • Use arrow keys (↑↓) or Tab key to select tab content, press Enter to switch or open your desired tab
  • Trigger actions directly through commands under /, for example, typing /ai followed by enter will trigger AI tab grouping
  • Use shortcuts to pin/unpin, open history, open current bookmark location, etc.
  • Type /s to enter the settings page, where you can customize shortcuts for various functions

πŸ‘΄πŸ» Conclusion

The extension is available on the Chrome Web Store and is open source. It doesn't store any user data, so you don't need to worry about personal data leakage. It's clean and ad-free.
