SimpleUndoRecents Extension

Almost a twin of SimpleUndoClose.
With a little less features but now undo closed tabs with the tab's history!

Requires minimum of Chrome 37 as SimpleUndoRecents uses the session API.

Basic usage:
- click the toolbar button, a popup showing closed tabs appear
- click on the closed page you want to restore
- keyboard navigation supported
- use the device dropdown list to select other devices

For answers to some questions you might have, read the mini FAQ:
http://goo.gl/ms17cz

Updated changelog is in the extension option pages.

--------

Reason For Permission Requests:

Your tabs and browsing activity
-> WHY: Required for use of the chrome.tabs API to detect tab status and to get the tab details

--------

Note:
The extension is v1.0 but there may still be bugs I've missed.
Please do feedback when something is not working, better if there are steps to replicate the problem.
Thanks :)

Will mark down its ID to find it in the future, but... no transparency, no trust.

bloodys spammers (ID: 00000060f11a2511) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 04/16/2023 I am amazed how many ungratful users don't come and leave feedback! Only 22 feedback??? That's crazy. Developers like you really do have a positive impact on THOUSANDS of people, on a daily basis. Well done and keep up the great work!
