IncognitoThis

Instantly open any existing tab in a private window, and vice-versa! Currently available as an extension for Google Chrome and Chromium browsers.

โšก๏ธ Click here to install!

๐Ÿš€ Features

With just a click, open any existing tab in a new incognito window. If enabled in incognito, can open tabs in the normal window, exactly like a toggle!

๐ŸƒRoadmap

  • This currently opens a new window everytime though there is an existing incognito window. Need to check the feasibility of opening it in a tab if there is already an incognito window
  • As of now, it works one way, i.e, privatizes an existing tab. Would be interesting to open incognito tabs in a normal window
  • Option to incognito these tabs in bulk, currently works for a single tab
  • Add an option to incognito, in the drop-down upon right-clicking on the browser window
  • Choose a tab without any URL loaded instead of creating a new tab again

๐Ÿ˜‡ Why did I build this?

Well, I tend to open shopping sites in incognito to see if there is any price difference. Also, I read a lot of Medium articles in incognito. It doesn't check for subscription in incognito!

Since there is a lot of Ctrl + c and Ctrl + v involved in this repetitive task, I thought I could use some extension. But the already existing ones are very old (no update since years) or doing something fishy. So I thought, hey, I can build something simple like this and open-source it so that others could contribute from preventing it go stale and the anyone can confidently install this extension.

Feel free submit PRs! ๐Ÿ˜€

I'm a novice in developing extensions and I'm very open to learn good practices in building & architecting this project!
