Usage

• Tabify works the moment it's installed — it's on by default, so there's nothing to configure.
• Click the toolbar icon any time to open the settings menu (toggle protection, change matching rules, or exclude the current site).
• Right-click any page to ignore that site or run Close duplicate tabs now instantly.
• Manage your full exclusion list from Excluded sites in the menu.

Features

• Automatically closes duplicate tabs and (optionally) jumps you back to the original.
• Smart matching: optionally treat links that differ only by query string (?…) or anchor (#…) as the same page.
• Per-site exclusions with a searchable manager, inline add, and one-tap Undo.
• Clean, intuitive menu that adapts to your system's light or dark appearance.
• Right-click shortcuts for ignoring a site or closing duplicates on demand.
