- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 12621138, 6 years agoThis addon is great and absolutely neccesary, but for me one thing is missing - could you please add a button in the search field to clear it (using mouse click)? It would be perfect :)
- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 12417233, 6 years agohow does it get favicons? it looks as if it's downloading them...
it would be nice if the search box was focused, so that one could hit a hotkey and start typing to find tabs
Edit: Thanks! That's great news.
Typing initiates filter does not work on Waterfox, but it does on Firefox 60, so I guess I am out of luck :(
Open Sidebar is the only action for which hotkeys work, both on Waterfox and Firefox 60
Edit2: Ideally this addon could be used entirely with the keyboard; shortcut to open pop-up menu, start to type to filter tabs, arrow keys to select tab, del to close tab, enter to open tab.
Unfortunately none of these features work.Developer response
posted 6 years ago"how does it get favicons?"
Favicons are supplied by Firefox's internal Tabs API.
"it would be nice if the search box was focused, so that one could hit a hotkey and start typing to find tabs"
In Preferences/Options select "Typing initiates filter/search". - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 14526734, 6 years ago
- Rated 5 out of 5by Andrew Ross-Skinner, 6 years agoReally useful Addon - All-Tabs-Helper allows Firefox users to keep track on all tabs and (Windows) devices.
Through the Firefox SyncTabs addon, you can also keep track on remote devices and pull everything together - only downside to date is that I cannot find the equivalent on Google Chrome.
Many thanks indeed to Kevin Jones for All Tabs Helper!
KR Andrew Ross ;-) - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 14506254, 6 years agoThis addon is the reason for me to install firefox. I couldn't find search in open tabs feature on any other browser. Functionality in this addon should be added to browser vanilla versions.
- Rated 4 out of 5by bengelapen, 6 years agoI love this addon.
Only one problem, all of a sudden when I right click on a tab, there is an entry in the menu that opens from ATH right on the bottom of the list. Very annoying because normally that bottom one is for clicking to close the tab.
Can that be changed in some way. - Rated 5 out of 5by Pierre de Grenoble (France), 6 years agoSans doute mon extension préférée parce que l'une des rares dont je ne pourrais pas me passer et aussi parce qu'elle augmente ma productivité de manière incroyable. Grand utilisateur de très nombreux onglets dans mes différentes sessions (profils) Firefox, j'ai longtemps utilisé la fonctionnalité Pandora puis Tab Group quand Mozilla a abandonné la fonctionnalité Pandora. Puis Tab Groups a été abandonnée par défaut de portage via l'API WebExtensions. Aujourd'hui je préfère utiliser All Tabs Helper que le relais Simple Tab Groups compatible WebExtensions que je n'ai jamais testée, ayant adopté All Tabs Helper en l'absence d'un autre gestionnaire similaire et avant la disponibilité de Simple Tab Gtroups. Mon choix est motivé par la gestion très efficace de la mémoire et par la versatilité de l'interface offrant plein d'options d'organisation et de gestion des onglets et ceci de manière très efficiente. Une mention spéciale au développeur Kevin (many thanks Kevin!) très réactif en support lorsque des bugs sont signalés et qui en outre enrichit constamment son extension.
- Rated 5 out of 5by AL, 6 years agoLove this Add-on. Been using it for ages. I thought once Quantum hit that it would lose all its usefulness and functionality, but the dev has done a good job of tackling whatever issues there were because it seems to work pretty great now. My only concern was the ability to suspend specific tabs as opposed to all tabs, but thankfully the dev has addressed this as well and it's as simple as right-clicking on the tab in ATH and then hitting Suspend Tab, super simple. So all is well and I couldn't be happier! Thanks!
- Rated 4 out of 5by JdbyeRox, 6 years agoThis has quickly become one of my must-have addons, I tend to not close tabs and the "switch to" feature of the AwesomeBar only works when it wants to, so I end up opening multiple of the same page. The ability to easily spot duplicate tabs, and also closing tabs more efficiently were what I looked for when I found this addon.
There seems to be a bug with the addon though. I can't find a way to save settings, there is no save button except for the one for CSS, and when I close the settings and open them back up, the changes are not saved.Developer response
posted 6 years agoSettings should be recorded immediately, except for keyboard shortcuts and custom CSS, for which there are "apply" buttons. I am unable to duplicate this issue. Can you contact me through the support channel? - Rated 5 out of 5by ulf3000, 6 years agoone of the best webextensions that exist imho ! 10000 stars from me !
small feature requests:
under the "dups" tab , please show the real tabtext and not just the domain name
bigger featurerequest :
when using the search tab , and clicking on an entry , when it switches to the tab please open the normal search bar automatically and paste the same text as in the search tab.
thanx for your hard work ! - Rated 5 out of 5by White_Oz, 6 years ago

- Rated 5 out of 5by algi, 6 years agoI love it,and I do agree with Pierre that this exstension should be default.
- Rated 5 out of 5by Pierre (aka Terdef), 6 years agoHi, Kevin,
This extension should be mandatory. Once used, we can not do without it.
How could one live without?
Suggestions:
In selection "all" and "recent": Option "alphabetical sorting" (except pinned)
In selection "search": after a search, option "delete all" ("close all those found") (except pinned)
Some slowness currently
Used simultaneously, mainly, with Ghostery, Privacy Badger, Decentraleyes, Addblock Plus, VTZilla, HTTPS Everywhere and CanvasBlocker.
Thanks a lot,
Regards,
Pierre - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 10808864, 6 years agoHey! Thank you for this great addon! I got this issue on Mac that makes it difficult to close a tab: is there any way address this problem?: https://www.dropbox.com/s/qv8gukvwzy6p44r/AllTabsHelperIssue.png?dl=0

posted 6 years agoSystems using on-demand scrollbar feature (as in your case) do not account for content at the edge of a window and thus will obscure the content when the scrollbar appears. Unfortunately addons do not have a way of detecting system settings.
You still have the option to select the tab(s) and close them from the context menu.
UPDATE: I have added an option in version 1.1.9 where users can statically force a margin to the right of the close buttons. This experimental feature is not an ideal solution, but at least users with Mac on-demand scrollbar setting can access the control buttons. - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 14392889, 6 years agoSince a couple of version "When reopening "alltabs" menu, ensure selected tab is visible" doesn't work anymore, otherwise very good addon.
Edit: well, this is weird because now it works! Maybe the bug was cleared with latest version, or it doesn't always trigger, in case I will report it; thank you anyway.Developer response
posted 6 years agoHi, can you check and see if you still have that feature selected in options? Otherwise, I'm unable to duplicate this, can you contact me via the support email? - Rated 4 out of 5by Just a friend, 6 years agoGreat add-on. I just wish there were a few more standard tab control items in the sidebar context menu. Like: close tabs left/right (above/below), bookmark selected, reopen in container, etc.
- Rated 5 out of 5by Elevation, 6 years agoGreat app but can an option please be added to disable the update notification after every update.
It's very distracting when every 2hnd add-on I have installed needs to inform me via a pop-up that an update has been installed. Otherwise no complaints and thanks to the dev Kevin. - Rated 4 out of 5by oxk4r, 6 years agoGood, but IMO the search box should take focus inmediatelly after activate it. That would make the addon more usable.

posted 6 years agoHave you tried selecting the "Typing initiates filter/search" option? I believe that will accomplish what you are wanting. - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 13818698, 7 years agoBest of the best! Found it when i needed to search keywords in many open tabs! No other plugin gives such option...
- Rated 5 out of 5by vidigal, 7 years agoUsed it for years... But now is not working the tab ordering via drap and drop. Is the feature not supported anymore or is mine problem? please help me... (ok resolved, now i have to preselect the tab also for a single one...)
Developer response
posted 6 years agoUpdate: Since Version 1.0.48, you no longer have to select to move a single tab, just click and drag. Selection is only required for moving multiple tabs. - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 14333585, 7 years ago
- Rated 2 out of 5by Firefox user 14324118, 7 years agoOnly manages tabs for a single window - why bother? Help page is 404 not found.
