Description

There's nothing wrong with taking a quick break, but it's easy to waste a ton of time as soon as you open a new tab. Tabminder helps make you more mindful of browsing distracting sites by providing a gentle reminder every few minutes, preventing quick visits to Reddit, Twitter, and Hacker News from turning into work-sucking time vortexes.

When you open a distracting tab, Tabminder starts counting down from your preset time limit. When time's up, it prompts you to close the distracting tab or restart the timer. It's just annoying enough to keep you aware of distracted browsing, but not so strict that it prevents you from taking a break once in a while.

Tabminder 1.0 is a significant update including a new Chrome-style UI, test coverage for better reliability, bult-in help, and an improved background script behind the scenes.

Changes in version 1.0:
• Improved UI using native Chrome widgets.
• Built-in help page.
• Removed content script and refactored timer.
• Background script and settings page test coverage.

What has inspired us?

Extore is a team of professionals who are passionate about creating extensions for web browsers. This devotion also gives us opportunity to appreciate work of other people. We get inspired by useful, open source extensions made by developers all over the world. Our strong belief is that one should share helpful add-ons with others. That’s why we’d like to present you our ever-growing list of favourite extensions that have inspired us. Moreover, as you probably have already learned, sometimes struggling for the best brings an end to the good. Talking about add-ons it often turns out that an upgrade is worse then previous version. Also it can become really tricky to get back to the beloved version of your favourite extension. That’s why we’re going to make not only the latest, but all versions of our favourite (and we hope yours too) add-ons available for download. No more compromises, just stick to the version you really like!
