About
Boomerang is a simple, lightweight and fast extension that allows you to switch between your previous and current tab at the speed of thought. Simply press Command + Shift + Left Arrow Key and you are back to your previous tab in seconds! (Note: use the Control key on Windows instead of Command). Why is the extension called Boomerang? Using the shortcut, you can “go” to your previous tab and “return” back to the current one with incredible speed and ease, just like an actual boomerang! This extension is perfect for all those times when you just want to go back to the last tab you were on but don’t know where exactly the tab is. With Boomerang, you can increase your productivity by using our simple shortcut to navigate quickly around your browser like never before. Boomerang is designed to integrate with and amplify your daily workflow in the simplest and best way possible so you can be more focused on all the tasks you have at hand.
