- Yettwasezmel 5 ɣef 5sɣur Aseqdac Firefox 12648956, 4 år sidanCool little helper. Informs me with the exact number of tabs open. THIS is what I wanted.
An improvement would be if I could define a number for alert notification. (even wording I enter :)
example: 20+ Hello, 40+ WaytoGo!, 60+ Caution!, 80+ Nuts!
I am at 108 right now, I need to come down. - Yettwasezmel 5 ɣef 5sɣur Aseqdac Firefox 14019718, 4 år sidanWorks as expected and the best tab counting add-ons I tried out
- Yettwasezmel 5 ɣef 5sɣur Implausible Feloniousness, 4 år sidanIt perfectly does everything it should do.
- Yettwasezmel 5 ɣef 5sɣur RMDevCorp, 4 år sidanGreat light weight extension for those who multitask and have hundreds(sometimes thousands of tabs open). Still some "customizablity" I think could be improved in regards to sizing the font or perhaps changing the size. It is very functional as is however as is, and have been using it for a long time after relacing another tab counter. Thank you oriol.
- Yettwasezmel 4 ɣef 5sɣur Ross Z, 4 år sidanHonestly, this seems to be one of the better tab counter addons on AMO... I've just been through testing about 15 of them, so I should know.
Unlike many addons on the site, the author has a very good description and screenshots and does not skimp on features.
In fact, the only thing this addon doesn't have that I really wish it did is some way to increase the font size (the *only* tab counter addon I found that has a larger font size was 'Tab Count Icon by lllusion3418' but it doesn't have as many options as this one does). I'm viewing from about 10ft away on a 50" TV set to 1920x1080. From there, TCI's font appears ~ 2x larger than TCP's. I can make both out but only just barely on TCP's.
Overall, a very solid addon. I hope increased font sizes become a thing but due to shortage of addons with this feature, I can only assume that it is difficult to do from WebExtensions. If I wasn't holding out for that or I could get me some robot eyes, then I would have no issue calling it the best one on AMO :-)
FF v89.0.2 on Fedora 33 Cinnamon - Yettwasezmel 5 ɣef 5sɣur sivulabill, 5 år sidanWith 16GB RAM in a pc, this AddOn allows (easy use) seeing a current count of (e.g., 800+) open FireFox Tabs, both entire count and count within current Firefox window. Along with Windows Task Manager (80+% RAM used), alerts me when to shutdown some Tabs and/or reboot Firefox, to free enough RAM to avoid crashing Firefox/Windows
- Yettwasezmel 5 ɣef 5sɣur brain8891, 5 år sidanI vouch that it is less taxing than other add-ons, you can test it by opening "About:Performance" on a different window in a different monitor, and then opening different tabs on a different window. I also suggest highlighting Tab counter plus entry in "About:performance page.
I also appreciate that it doesn't ask for any invasive needless permissions. Kudos for that.
I like that you can choose SVG icon which shows only the number of tabs, however, the font/numbers looked too fine and small with low contrast, I changed both background and text color, but still it was too hard for me to read. Hence, I suggest to add some customization to change the SVG font values like thickness or font size. Not sure if possible, but hope so. Alternatively, add a third option to just show the WebExtension badge without the Tab icon, meaning just the number.
A suggestion, If possible add number of running tabs, meaning tabs that are not suspended. Reason for this suggestion, you can see how many tabs are running and thus help with troubleshooting. Having said that, if this might taxing then make optional.
Finally, thank you, THANK YOU for your hard work <3Tiririt n ineflayen
yeffeɣ-d deg 5 år sidanThank you for the kind words! I tried to minimize the performance impact as much as possible.
It's true that the SGV icon doesn't look that good with a big number of tabs, but there is just not enough space. I have https://github.com/Loirooriol/tab-counter-plus/issues/13 about adding font customization, but it may be tricky since currently I change some styles depending on the length of the number.
I agree that excluding suspended tabs would be useful. Actually I already have a draft patch that lets you exclude suspended, hidden or pinned tabs. But first I would like to add some automated test coverage, and lately I haven't had much free time for this. - Yettwasezmel 5 ɣef 5sɣur Louie Torres, 5 år sidanIt does exactly what it needs to - showing the number of tabs. Maybe it could show the index of the tab like 4/24 or something, but that's just a suggestion.
Again, otherwise, nothing to complain about. Simple and fast. Thank you for your work!Tiririt n ineflayen
yeffeɣ-d deg 5 år sidanThanks for your suggestion! However, I don't have much space, so 5 characters like 10/25 would be quite unreadable with a SVG icon, and would be clipped to 10/2 with a WebExtension badge.
But it might be possible to just show the index of the current tab, without the number of tabs. - Yettwasezmel 3 ɣef 5sɣur joel, 5 år sidanperfect except for two issues I had:
- I was unable to change the background color in the preferences for some reason
- there should be an option to not-count pinned tabs.
I hope that the pinned tab feature is added at some point but until then it still continues to be a useful and unobtrusive addon.Tiririt n ineflayen
yeffeɣ-d deg 5 år sidanIs the checkbox next to the background color checked? Otherwise, the color has 0 opacity, in case you want a transparent background.
I already have an experimental patch to exclude pinned tabs, hidden tabs, or discarded tabs. But I would want to have more test coverage before adding that. - Yettwasezmel 5 ɣef 5sɣur John Homebrew, 5 år sidan
- Yettwasezmel 5 ɣef 5sɣur zephyr707, 5 år sidanSeems the best option available and does not have any added permissions, but is there a way to display both current and global tab count and maybe also total window count? There are some add ons in firefox that do one or the other and some that display both current and global tabs, but none that do all three
edit: great, thanks for the update! I'm sticking with this one, cheersTiririt n ineflayen
yeffeɣ-d deg 5 år sidanYou are not the first one to request this, so I have just done it! Please check version 3.4 - Yettwasezmel 1 ɣef 5sɣur Cocaine Johnsson, 5 år sidanUseless on dark theme, there's an open bug report from 2018 that mentions this and nothing has been done to even attempt resolving it.
The solutions are rather simple, either detect the user is using a dark theme and pick a light text colour or let the user set their own text colour.
Functionally broken on dark themes.
EDIT: Since there's no way to reply to comments, here's my reply to you Mr. Dev:
Yes, I did. You can change the badge colour but not the colour of the actual add-on window.
Before you get defensive and dismiss issues, how about you actually familiarize yourself with your own product, eh?
Here, this is the problem since you clearly can't read so good: https://i.imgur.com/KCmVv9f.png
The badge isn't the problem and not once did I use the word badge.Tiririt n ineflayen
yeffeɣ-d deg 5 år sidanDid you try changing the preferences in about:addons? There you can customize the colors so that they match your theme.
So please get your facts straight before criticizing. Actually, it was me who designed and implemented the WebExtension API that Firefox provides to add-ons so that they can change the text color of the badge! See https://bugzil.la/1424620
On the other hand, I agree that it would be great to automatically pick the colors depending on whether the theme is light or dark. But, as said in issue #15, the problem is that I can't properly do it with current APIs. So in https://bugzil.la/1484840 I proposed a new API, but I don't have time to implement it and convince Mozilla to accept it.
Edit: OK, turns out the problem is about the popup, not the counter icon. That's different than the existing bug report from 2018, and seems fixable. I was not aware of it, thanks for the report! Sorry I was too quick to jump to conclusions.
This problem wasn't actually my fault, since I was just relying on the browser to provide the correct text and background colors. But I have addressed it in version 3.3. - Yettwasezmel 5 ɣef 5sɣur Firepal, 5 år sidan
- Yettwasezmel 4 ɣef 5sɣur Jiří Macich ml., 5 år sidan
- Yettwasezmel 5 ɣef 5sɣur Ramon V M, 6 år sidanThis add-on is simple and light, just what I needed to have in mind how many tabs I have and therefore the amount of RAM Firefox is using. Thanks!

yeffeɣ-d deg 5 år sidanThanks for your words, producing something simple, light and that works well was precisely my goal! - Yettwasezmel 4 ɣef 5sɣur SpankyPants, 6 år sidanThanks for the addon, it's working well so far.
Have you abandoned it now, or will we see some updates soon?Tiririt n ineflayen
yeffeɣ-d deg 5 år sidanGlad that you like it! I had not been working on it for quite some time, but I have just published a small update. I will try to keep refining it from time to time. - Yettwasezmel 4 ɣef 5sɣur YFdyh000, 6 år sidan

- Yettwasezmel 5 ɣef 5sɣur jerboa88, 7 år sidanWorks really great! It's unfortunate that the text can't be made any larger but I understand you don't have a lot of space to work with. Perhaps you could use a taller font to use up more space vertically as the text is a little hard to read sometimes. Thank you sir!
Tiririt n ineflayen
yeffeɣ-d deg 5 år sidanExactly, the problem is that the browser doesn't give me much space. I already experimented with tall fonts, but it actually looked even harder to read :( But glad that you like it! - Yettwasezmel 5 ɣef 5sɣur Soustruh, 7 år sidan
- Yettwasezmel 5 ɣef 5sɣur Aseqdac Firefox 14554732, 7 år sidanThis was the first tab counter extension I've found that works on the Android app.
Tiririt n ineflayen
yeffeɣ-d deg 7 år sidanThanks for your feedback! In fact I only designed the add-on for Firefox desktop, so if it works on Android it's mostly by chance. But I will try to keep this in mind and check that future updates continue working on Android.
