Tab Browser is the quick and easy way to always have an eye on the website that matters to you the most! Sitting in your Mac's menu bar, your favorite website is never more than one click away! Best of all: It is completely customizable! Features: - Either select one of over 30 preconfigured webpages to be your one click favorite - Or enter the custom URL of the Website you like as your favorite - Saves Money because you don't have to buy single "Tab Apps" that only support one website - Window Size is customizable - HTTP User Agent is customizable - Option to reload the page every time you bring it to the front - Option to launch Tab Browser at Login - Printing support - Maximize Window - File Upload and Download - Full Surf History The preconfigured Pages are: - Facebook - Twitter - Google - Google Translate - Google Maps - Google Mail - The Washington Post - The Huffington Post - Ebay - Amazon - Youtube - Wolfram Alpha - Wikipedia - ESPN - CNET - PriceGrabber - MacUpdate - and many more! For most of the sites it is possible to select either a compact (saves space) or a full view! Also it is possible to add your own favorite site just by setting up the URL in the preferences window. All of this comes in an intuitive and non-disturbing design, that puts the focus on the content. * Tab Browser does NOT provide free access to any of these sites paid content! * *** For further info, feature requests and feedback please visit the App Webpage ***
Great!
Awesome idea, not quite so well executed. This is not meant to be a browser, rather a viewer. The idea of this app is to have an icon in your menubar to monitor one website or another, for services which do not have their own app, such as Google Voice or MSN. The problem I have with it is it only allows *one* website, while I have a few such websites that have no other app. I am using it for Google Voice, and for this it works great. I would, however, like to have multiple instances, so as to monitor or check multiple different websites. Then, it would also be desirable to change the icon(s), or to have a submenu, with different selected websites divided into a menu selection. I, however, would prefer to have separate icons in the menubar. Great solution, though, to have one website to monitor.
Nice Single Site Dropdown Browser
If you only need a single site starting point, this works very nicely. I use this for an online project manager system, which is handier than just having a separate browser window. Browser window size is set by user, which is nice for creating a custom solution. This is a simple app, so don't expect bells and whistles. But serves a purpose for the parameters mentioned above. Only complaint is preferences window hides behind other apps, making it sometimes a pain to set the preferences.
Doesn't open on Mac OS 10.8.5
Tested it on my other computer using 10.11, and it works really nicely, so making a separate review for how it works, but for 10.8 users, stay away!
not a browser
This is not a browser this is some gimmick a waste of money if you are expecting a browser stay away
Error Sounds on Typing
This app is so helpful, I’ve pinned messenger to my menu bar and it has made my life easier. I have one problem, however. Every single time I type a messange in, I receive the typing error buzz, even though the typing is successful. It would be greatly appreciated if this buzz could be remeidied as it is extremely frustrating.
i love it!
I LOVE IT!!!
Almost Perfect!
What a great app! The pre-configured sites are off-the-hook convenient, and expertly formatted for this little app. I’m adding all my “pinned” sites from Firefox, and then some! I’d like a little more privacy, however, so my boss wont look over my shoulder when I try to exit the app. You can only quit the app when the browser is fully opened, instead of right clicking the icon. ALSO, I would actually pay extra if I can run multiple instances of this app (for different sites) and maybe have the favicon of the site used so I can remember which is which. Other than that, my first impressions are that this is a well thought out, and nicely executed app. Well worth the few dollars!
