Quick Tab Switcher helps you navigate between browser tabs efficiently using simple keyboard shortcuts. No more endless tab hunting!

🎯 How It Works
Indexing Your First Tab
Navigate to a tab you frequently use.
Press your chosen Custom Key (e.g., 'J') + Tab.
The tab is now indexed and will appear in the Quick Tab Switcher panel.
Quick Switching
Once you've indexed a tab, instantly jump to it by pressing your Custom Key + Shift.
Managing Indexed Tabs
Update an index: Simply use the same Custom Key on a different tab.
Remove an index: Click the Delete button next to any indexed tab.
View all indexes: Open the Quick Tab Switcher panel.
Customizing Per Window
Each browser window manages its own key bindings, allowing you to set unique shortcuts in separate windows. This flexibility helps you organize tasks across different browser instances.

💡 Pro Tips
Choose Memorable Keys
Numbers (1-9) for numbered tabs
Letters that match website names (e.g., G for Gmail)
Function keys (F1-F12) for special tabs

⚠️ Limitations
Does not work on Chrome's protected URLs (like the New Tab page).
Limited to one Custom Key per tab.
All key bindings will be lost after the browser is closed.
