- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 15037318, 8 days agoOne problem. When the address bar is white that is when the address bar has a white background, the pen symbol does not show at all because the pen symbol you use is white (as I assume you use a dark background that has a black address bar so you need a white pen to see it).
You seem to have done your pen in the address bar only when the address bar has a black background.
BUT you forgot to do it for when the address bar has a white background and, in such a case, the pen should show only if the pen is black in this second case; in my case, it only shows a full white space on my address bar instead of a space showing a black pen, as it shows a white space and your white pen but because your pen is white, it ends up showing only a white space.
Moreover, it would be better to allow an icon of your addon to be pinned to the toolbar instead of using a full space on the address bar for every single tab, as I have to change the name of the tab extremely rarely.
Especially considering the fact that your space on my address bar (that has a white background) shows only as a white space without displaying at all a black pen because you created only a white pen for your address bar that has a black background.
Thanks to correct this issue if you can. And thanks to the developer for this addon. - Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 14253167, 2 months agoNice, but when using Windows scale (125%), the icon is not visible.
- Rated 3 out of 5by senecakw, 4 months agoWorks ok but extremely annoying that it doesn't automatically select the existing text. You have to manually select and drag multiple times to get to the end of long existing text.

- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 16644052, 8 months agoThis is exactly what I was looking for - a quick way to rename tabs I have opened. Has been perfect keeping track of different reddit game day threads when watching live sports
- Rated 5 out of 5by Ade Septian, 2 years agoIt works! The icon/add-on menu in the address bar is its biggest selling point for me, which I thought it's not possible to do.
- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 15097235, 2 years agoI love this extension. It does what it says!
Aside from the main functionality, my favorite part is that it goes into the address bar by the bookmark star. Big aesthetic plus for me; it helps keep the tool on hand without making the toolbar feel cluttered.
The minimalist, transparent background icon meshes with the design language of the browser (i.e. matches other icons).
-----
There are a lot of similar extensions, so allow me a couple comparisons.
For me, it beats Rename Tab Title (the extension I previously used) because that one has a bright white square icon that looks out of place in my dark setup.
It also wins (for me personally) over an extension called "Rename Tab", because clicking the button in the address bar is easier than right clicking the tab and navigating to a button at the bottom of the context menu.
------
My main gripe is that the pop-up window is white and contrasts strongly with any dark theme.
But I can live with that, since it's only noticeable when I'm actually using the extension, and not at all times.
There's also a quirk where if you have two or more tabs with an identical address, renaming one will rename all the others with that same address. This can be problematic in some use cases. - Rated 5 out of 5by rowennjohn, 3 years agoWell, it renames tab good for partnering with tree style tab.
