Close on Back: Automatically Close Active Tabs

Close on Back is a free Chrome extension developed by VDO. It falls under the category of Browsers and specifically the subcategory of Add-ons & Tools. This extension provides a convenient solution for users who want to automatically close their active tab when they hit the back button on the last history page.

With Close on Back, users can easily close tabs directly without the need to manually click on the close button. This can be especially useful when users open a tab but quickly realize that they no longer need it. Instead of navigating back to the tab and closing it manually, Close on Back streamlines the process by automatically closing the active tab when the back button is pressed on the last history page.

What sets Close on Back apart is its compatibility with extra history back buttons on mice and keyboard shortcuts. This means that users can utilize their preferred method of navigating back and still benefit from the automatic tab closure feature.

Overall, Close on Back is a handy Chrome extension that simplifies tab management by automatically closing active tabs when the back button is pressed on the last history page. Its compatibility with extra history back buttons and keyboard shortcuts makes it a versatile tool for users looking to optimize their browsing experience.
