Description

Open Multiple URLs is a practical browser tool that allows you to open several web pages at once by pasting a list of URLs into a text area. Instead of manually opening each link one by one, you can paste all addresses (one per line), configure a few options, and click a button to open them all in new tabs. This extension is particularly useful for researchers, developers, or anyone who needs to quickly access multiple sites from a saved list, such as checking a set of bookmarks, verifying links, or browsing through a collection of resources.

Features

  • Plain-text URL input: Paste any list of website addresses, each on a separate line. The extension processes them as-is, supporting both standard URLs and text that may need to be treated as search queries.
  • Customizable opening options: Choose how URLs are opened-whether in new tabs, new windows, or in existing tab groups. This flexibility helps organize your browsing session by grouping related pages together or keeping them separate.
  • Tab group support: URLs can be opened in new or existing tab groups, making it easy to categorize and manage multiple pages. For example, you can open all work-related links in one group and personal links in another.
  • Search fallback: If an input line is not a valid URL, the extension can perform a standard web search using your default search engine. This is handy when you have a mix of URLs and search terms in your list.
  • Settings persistence: The extension saves your preferences and previously entered lists using the browser's storage. This means your options and recent inputs are retained between sessions, so you don't have to re-enter them each time.
  • Open source and transparent: The source code is available on GitHub, and there is a changelog to track updates. Users can verify the code or contribute improvements.

Whether you need to open a batch of links from a document, email, or exported bookmarks, Open Multiple URLs streamlines the process by eliminating repetitive clicking. It is a straightforward utility that saves time and reduces manual effort when dealing with multiple web addresses.
