Tab Auto Close

Download extension

Automatically close browser tabs after a certain period of inactivity.Tab Auto Close is the browser equivalent to a website performing an auto-logout. It is common practice for sites like banking or stock trading platforms to log the user out after a period of inactivity. This provides a bit of security to prevent someone who has walked away (leaving an open computer) from having their accounts inappropriately accessed.

Tab Auto Close is a browser extension that closes a tab after a period of user inactivity. The period of inactivity is a menu-controlled input (which defaults to 1 hour). A desktop notification will alert the user 2 minutes prior to the tab auto closing. Any activity on the page will reset the auto close timer (clicks, scrolls, keyboard typing, etc). Finally, there is a blacklist and whitelist option to prevent (or include) the auto-closing on sites that should remain open (or closed).
