About
🔔 Heads Up: I worked on this project in my initial days just to learn extension development. It's time to call it a day. The functionality it offered is now a default feature in the Chrome browser, making this project obsolete. Unfortunately, I won't be making any more updates. This extension helps you to quickly peek at history in the popup that helps you view, search, and delete your history without distracting you from your work. It also lets you restore your sessions across devices (Reopen recently closed tabs/windows or tabs/windows on other devices). ✨ Features - Quickly Peek History in popup - Delete specific or all history - Reopen closed tabs (Full session) - Restore sessions from other devices - Fully controllable by keyboard - Infinite scroll ⌨ Keyboard Shortcuts - 🔵 Toggle Peek History (Open/Close extension popup) - Ctrl + Shift + H - 🔍 Quickly Search in History - Alt + S (After opening popup) - ⚙️ Open Extension Options/Settings - Alt + O (After opening popup) - 📑 See Recently Closed Tabs/Other Tabs - Alt + ➡️ Right Arrow (After opening popup) - 🔢 Open nth number of history link or the recently closed tab - Alt + (1 - 9) Number Keys 🔒 PRIVACY NOTICE This extension does not collect any of your personal data. Please provide feedback if you like this extension. Thanks 😄
