About TabFlick
TabFlick changes Control-Tab in Chromium browsers so it returns to the tab you used last, the way Command-Tab works for apps, instead of walking the tab strip in order. Hold Control to move through recent tabs and release to switch. A search panel finds tabs, bookmarks, history, folders and apps, and the menu bar lists every open tab. It suits people who work across many tabs in Chrome, Edge, Brave or another Chromium browser.
It requires macOS 14 or later and Chromium 116 or later, and it needs a companion browser extension for tab data and search; without the extension, Control-Tab falls back to the browser's own switching. The app needs Accessibility permission. The disk images are built for Apple silicon and Intel, and the Apple silicon build is not notarized, so the first launch has to be allowed by right-clicking the app in Applications and choosing Open.
