In Urls section, select the URL from dropdown located at the bottom of the page
Edit the Title in textbox
Click on save (or) Press Enter to save the title.
Click on delete to delete the title.

In Regex section, add/update regex and the corresponding title and press "Save"
eg: /.*google.*/ matches all the websites which has the term google in the url,
/*/ matches all websites

*some websites keeps updating the title on some events (eg: gmail.com updates title whenever hangouts gets initialized and whenever someone pings) this addon doesn't work in such cases as i didn't add the polling. If have any workaround for this please do mention in the comments.. thanks
