Tab Bard

Support

Email tabbard@redlamp.org. For a bug, include your browser, its version, and the steps.

Why does my browser say it can read my browsing history?

That's the permission to see Tab titles and URLs, which stay on your device. More on permissions.

Why don't I see my incognito or private Tabs?

Tab Bard doesn't run in those Windows.

How do I remove it?

Right-click its toolbar icon and choose Remove. That deletes everything it stored.
