Tab bar in Firefox is always visible, How about hiding it when it is not required, like maybe you are busy updating your blog, or maybe you are on a break and you are busy watching videos on YouTube, or you simply don’t want people around you to see your tabs.

In such scenarios, this Firefox Add-on, Hide Tabbar is the answer; this simply hides and unhides the tab bar.

Install the add-on and feel free to set the keyboard shortcut for hiding (same key combinations will be used to unhide too).

It also has the ‘Auto Hide’ feature, if you want the tab bar to auto hide after certain ms, you can choose it as well.

Hide Tabbar is nice concept, the issues I discussed earlier in this post could be one of the reason, moreover getting a better view of webpage is something which can be achieved using this add-on.

However, I found the ‘Auto Hide’ a bit irritating; personally I have never liked ‘Auto Hide’ even for the task bar in Windows.

Well, I am sure we have people who like ‘Auto Hide’ thing; it’s more about personal opinion.

Have a try, and see it yourself if you find Hide Tabbar useful for you. Do share with us if you real  find it worth, or is it something useless in your opinion.  Install Hide Tabbar
