Description

Always Active Tabs is a powerful Chrome extension that keeps your tabs "always active" - preventing websites from detecting when you switch away from them. KEY FEATURES: - Make any tab appear constantly visible and focused to websites - Modern dark UI with clean, minimal design - Real-time statistics showing active/total tab count - Comprehensive API override (Page Visibility, focus events, timers) - Web Audio protection to prevent context suspension - Performance optimized with minimal browser impact - Auto-recovery when pages reload HOW IT WORKS: When you enable "Always Active" for a tab, the extension overrides browser APIs to make websites think your tab is always visible and focused. This prevents: - Tab timeouts and session expiration - Game pausing when switching tabs - Video call "away" status - Timer throttling in background tabs - Analytics tracking gaps PERFECT FOR: - Google Docs/Sheets - maintain edit sessions without timeouts - Browser games - keep games running without pausing - Video calls - stay "active" in meetings when multitasking - Analytics dashboards - keep real-time data updating - Music/video players - prevent buffering issues - Time tracking apps - maintain accurate activity tracking - Auto-refreshing pages - keep live feeds updating PRIVACY & SECURITY: - No data collection - your browsing stays private - No external connections - everything runs locally - Minimal permissions - only requests necessary access - Open source approach - all functionality is transparent EASY TO USE: 1. Click the extension icon in your toolbar 2. Navigate to any tab you want to keep active 3. Click "Make Always Active" 4. Switch away freely - the website thinks you're still there! IMPORTANT: This extension works at the tab level within Chrome. It cannot make Chrome appear active to other applications when you switch to different programs. Transform your productivity with Always Active Tabs - keep your workflow flowing seamlessly!
