ActivityTab: Organize and Save Your Tabs Extension

Organize your tabs by renaming and coloring your tabs!
Save your tabs according to color and relaunch them with a click of a button!

ActivityTab allows you to effectively keep track of your tabs by allowing you to rename, color, and save your tabs. Accessible through the extension popup, commands, or context menu, ActivityTab allows you to quickly modify your tabs to your liking and save them so you can swiftly launch a set of tabs that you want to return to.

Features:
● Rename a tab
● Save colored tabs
● Save all tabs
● Close tabs of a specified color
● Creation of tab groups that keep track of your saved tabs

Once set, the name and color of a tab will persist when changing webpages and when the tab is refreshed. To save tabs of a certain color, select a tab with that color and then save it.

Once you install the extension, make sure to refresh your tabs so that the extension will work on them (they do not recognize the extension since they were opened before the extension was installed).

About Permissions: I need the permission “Read and change all your data on the websites you visit” so that the extension can rename and color webpages from any website. I don’t store anything about you as everything is stored on your computer.

Tips:
● Close tabs that you don’t need! If you save them, you can always access them later!
● Saving all of your tabs can be really useful when working on a project! By renaming and coloring your tabs, you can open all the tabs for your project and still be organized!
● Remember that there are many different ways to rename and color your tabs! You can use the popup, commands, and context menu!

Pictures of the extension features can be found above, and detailed explanations of the extension features can be found below.

Known bugs/quirks:
● Some webpages will not be affected by the extension because Google does not allow their extensions to affect those pages (ex: Chrome Web Store pages)
● Changing the color of a webpage will change its bookmark icon as well; you can reset the bookmark icon by clicking the bookmark icon to launch a regular page or by just launching a regular page of the website
● Webpages may lose their color and name on rare occasions; the only way to fix this is to recolor and rename the tab
