P O (ID: 000000615206f6de) Voted 4 β˜… - Updated 05/23/2023 This extension does what I expect it to do it : it provides a clickable button to go to the next tab (I personally have no use for the timer features). However it I am puzzled that it doesn't also provide a "previous tab" button. This would make this extension about two times better :)

Joshua Fraim (ID: 0000006a35958ef6) Voted 4 β˜… - Updated 02/26/2023 really awesome program. the only problem is lately i'll find it isn't switching tabs anymore and the icon is red. i have to start the whole thing over again. not even clicking on it fixes it.

moi lois (ID: 00000014b639d7dd) Voted 4 β˜… - Updated 04/16/2021 I will get five star if we can have a independent timer on each tab to stop after the set timer. i wouldlike to take a video and make 10 duplicates and start each copy at a different time stamp and your application will stop the video and start the next tab

William Seneshen (Infideluxe) (ID: 000000e4eb6c6572) Voted 5 β˜… - Updated 08/22/2020 Exquisitely great. As a longtime bookmark and tab junkie, anything that eases navigation headaches is a fantastic win. And to have an autoadvance/slideshow capability can actually serve me in slamming out impromptu presentations. Very eager to hammer on this.
