HorizantalTabs — Horizontal Tab Bar & Search

Tracking since Apr 14, 2026.

Changelog

• Jun 13, 2026
  description

  Chrome shrinks your tabs into unreadable slivers once you open too many. You lose the title, lose the page, and eventually open the same tab again because finding it takes too long.
  
  HorizantalTabs gives Chrome a horizontal scrollable tab bar. Every tab stays readable. Scroll with your mouse wheel, search instantly, drag to reorder, group tabs, pin tabs, and switch in one click.
  
  Unlike session-first tab managers, HorizantalTabs is built for the tabs you are using right now.
  
  A lightweight alternative to bulky tab managers — no saving sessions just to find the tab you already opened.
  
  ─── FREE FEATURES ───
  
  • Horizontal scrollable tab strip — mouse wheel, no resizing
  • Instant search — filter every open tab by title or URL in under a second
  • Click to switch — one click activates any tab

  • Multi-window view — see tabs from every Chrome window at once
  • Tab groups — color-coded Chrome tab groups shown inline
  • Pin and unpin from the tab bar
  • Floating tab bar — overlay it on any page (Alt+H)
  • Auto-hide bar — disappears when not in use, reappears on hover
  • Right-click menu — pin, duplicate, mute, close others, close to right
  • 7 theme modes — light, dark, auto, random, match tab, opposite, floating

  • Anyone who's said "I had it open a minute ago"
  • Developers juggling docs, GitHub, Stack Overflow, and dev servers
