Three ways in Chrome

  1. Keyboard: Ctrl + Shift + A, or ⌘ + Shift + A on a Mac.
  2. Tab Search button: select the Tab Search icon in the tab strip, then type.
  3. Address bar: type @tabs, press Tab or Space, then type.

Search more than your tabs

TabOverview opens with one shortcut, and then you just start typing. One search covers your open tabs, saved pages and closed tabs, and your history if you add it. A search across your tabs, 20,000 bookmarks and 5,000 closed pages takes about 0.01 seconds, so results narrow down as you type. See how we measured it.

TabOverview is a free extension for Google Chrome on a computer, coming soon to the Chrome Web Store. It needs no registration and sends nothing to a server.
