FlipTab: Tab Switch for Safari
Jump to your previous tab
Only for Mac
$1.99
Mac
Switch back to the Safari tab you just used. One shortcut, smart close behavior, and local-only session state with no accounts or analytics.
FlipTab helps Safari users get back to the tab they were just using without hunting through the tab bar.
Use a keyboard shortcut to return to your previously active tab, or close the current tab and let FlipTab focus the tab you came from. It keeps a separate recent-tab trail for each Safari window, so research, docs, dashboards, and everyday browsing stay easy to navigate.
Features:
- Previous tab shortcut: press Command-E to flip between the current tab and the last one you used.
- Smart close: close the active tab and return to the tab you were using before it.
- Window-specific history: each Safari window keeps its own recent-tab order.
- Private by design: no accounts, no analytics, and no external servers. FlipTab only uses temporary local session state needed for tab switching.
Setup:
1. Open FlipTab.
2. Click Extension Settings.
3. Enable FlipTab in Safari.
4. Confirm or customize the keyboard shortcut in Safari Settings.
