Tab Notes is a free and simple Google Chrome Extension using which you can effortlessly create any Notes right on your Browser Tab. The Notes are auto saved and synchronized with each new tab so that you need not spend time accessing them later.
When we are searching for information or reading articles, blogs and more on the world wide web, we find the urge and need to take down some important notes or copy-paste selected text from the web page. Often, this may be ignored due to our disinclination in opening Notepad or any other third-party application where we can create and save the notes. Wouldn’t it be convenient if we could probably write and save all the required notes in the browser itself. Yes, this is exactly what ‘Tab Notes’ does. It allows you to make your notes in the browser itself and saves them automatically so that they are available when you open it the next time.
Features:
- Take notes in Browser: Jot down notes in your browser tab itself with auto-save and auto-sync. Code blocks are also supported in the application.
- Typography: Change the Font, Style, Color etc. of the Notes in order to organize them properly.
- Shapes: Draw important shapes like rectangle, rounded rectangle, circle and more with customized foreground / background colors and stroke size to accompany the notes.
