Tired of repeatedly switching between your recently used tabs in Safari? TabBack brings the missing Most Recently Used (MRU) tab switcher to Safari, just like Command-Tab for apps. Quickly jump back and forth between recently used tabs, without breaking your flow. Key Benefits - MRU tab switching – Instantly move between your most recent tabs with a shortcut. - Customisable shortcuts – Pick the key combination that fits your workflow (you can use Control-Tab as well). - Visual clarity – Tab thumbnails make it easy to recognize the tab you want at a glance. - Always responsive – Switch tabs even while pages are still loading. Privacy First TabBack uses webpage content and browsing history only to generate tab previews and enable tab switching. All processing happens on-device, and TabBack runs entirely offline. Note: Due to technical limitations, tab thumbnails and titles does not appear for Safari’s Start Page or local documents. Questions, issues, or suggestions? Reach out anytime at contact.seungwoochoe@gmail.com. I usually respond within 24 hours :) _______ Terms of Use: https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula

Safari’s missing feature!

App is polished and works flawlessly. Note that if you use Tab Spaces, it only Tabs between Tabs within each space, which is a pro or a con depending on your use case. If the developer is reading this, I’d love the option to Tab across Tab Spaces 🙏🏻

Developer Response
Thank you for your feedback! Unfortunately, Safari does not provide a way for extensions to focus tabs in a different tab group. If you’d like to switch between tab groups, I suggest using separate windows for each group. You can then cycle through them in the order they were last used with an app like AltTab.If you have any other feedback or need help, feel free to contact me at contact.seungwoochoe@gmail.com.

Been using it so far for 5 minutes. Looks like the developer put a lot of careful thought into building this right. Very Apple like. Well done! I had started writing this extension for myself a year ago but never saw it through to the end. I'm glad I found this, looks like I might not have to write my own after all, given how well this is working so far!

Fixes ctrl-tab in Safari

I never understood why Apple knows cmd-tab is most useful in most-recently-used order, but doesn't use the same order for ctrl-tab (or cmd-`).This fixes the problem well in Safari. It even does the right thing and does *not* show its window list if you ctrl-tab fast. The list only shows if you hold for a second.

I'm a longtime Firefox user, but I've recently been using Safari more due to the convenient tab syncing with my iPhone and iPad. My biggest complaint on the desktop has always been the behavior of ctrl Tab, and this extension finally sets things right. Thank you!

This release brings improvements and bug fixes to make TabBack even better.
