- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 13578014, 7 years agoThis is a sorry replacement for the beautiful original colorful tabs. I am uninstalling it. It is so very ugly.

- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 13528712, 7 years agoI had all the good will of the world to love this addon, BUT... it doesn't even get 2 km away from the genius of the original ColorfulTabs.
Most irritating problem is that every tab changes also the main theme of the browser to the tab's color, making difficult to read out menus etc, and undoing theme selection.
Sorry, but, so far, it SUCKS. - Rated 5 out of 5by Bankza, 7 years ago
- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 13254990, 7 years agoLixo, lixo, lixo.
Desde o FF 57 o addon que era o melhor existente para colorir as tabs deixou de funcionar.
Fez uma versão beta mas é um lixo, apenas pinta a current tab com uma cor aleatória sujando todo o resto da base.
Horrível, horrível, horrível.
Uma pena. - Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 13785464, 7 years agoThis just ads a random color to only the current open tab, and no other tab. The Color reverts to default when switching between tabs. This is a useless addon, as this does not help to differentiate the tabs that are opened. This is not the FabTabs replacement that i seek.
- Rated 1 out of 5by 1puregenius, 7 years agoJust not working like the older version that I liked so well; now only colors the active tab; quite useless as such.
- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 13119159, 7 years agoSadly not compatible with Tree Style Tabs. Seems like it's not working as well as it used to with normal tabs either. Probably not fully compatible with Quantum yet.
- Rated 3 out of 5by Peco, 7 years agoExperiencing trouble. Only the active tab is colored, not the others. FF 58 on Xubuntu 16.04
- Rated 3 out of 5by drlnielsen, 7 years agoWas a tried-and-true go-to for FF, now a little strange. Controls more than tab colors on my Firefox: deletes theme, colors all menus white, increases menu size. I suspect the developer has moved on to greater things.

- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 13733433, 7 years agoUnfortunately it does not work with the latest version of firefox Quantum. Please can you update the plugin.
- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 13681637, 7 years agoHello,
was used to this addon and liked the possibility to have one red tab as optical separator.
Do you think it will be possible in Quantum?
Like have different colors for tabs but without background of URL? Just the Tab area?
And have to chance to change the color of the tab?
Thank you - Rated 1 out of 5by jakryk, 7 years agoUnfortunately it doesn't work with FireFox 57.0.4. I've been waiting and hoping for an update because I loved it, but I guess they can't fix the problem. Too bad, it was a great extension when it was working.
- Rated 1 out of 5by Mel, 7 years agoI miss Tab Mix Plus, which let me color tabs the way I want, and designate a color to tabs I've viewed, tabs I haven't viewed, the tab I'm viewing, etc.
- Rated 1 out of 5by JackD, 7 years agoOnly colors the one tab you're on. (FF57). Un-installed. Hope they get it working the way it was supposed to. I would love to try it again. PS. if you do- please email us. Thanks

- Rated 1 out of 5by rakeem84, 7 years agoExactly what the previous reviews have said about this add-on with FF57 ("Quantum"), especially jazzybob:
ColorfulTabs does not work the same way as it did in the earlier versions of Firefox. In version 57 it highlights the tab your on with one color wile the rest of the tabs stay white.In addition the Bookmarks Toolbar and Addons Toolbars change the same color as the the highlighted tab. It's not pretty.
The one thing I loved about the old ColorfulTabs is the I could color code similar site tabs with the same color. Color coding allowed me to find tabs easily, as I can have 30 - 40 tabs open. Thank goodness for Firefox 57.
I'm very disappointed in this version of Colorful tabs and hope that they go back to the old way it worked. I'm uninstalling this version.
---> I won't use this extension any longer until it is fixed to the way it was before / how it is supposed to work! - Rated 1 out of 5by jazzybob, 7 years agoColorfulTabs does not work the same way as it did in the earlier versions of Firefox.
