Reviews & Comments of Feedly Background Tab chrome extension

Was great when it worked. Stopped working many months ago.

Seems to have stopped working end of 2020

Stopped working for me, I have tried reassigning the shortcut, to no avail

Great little extension, I have loved it for many years. BUT.. has it suddenly stopped working for anyone else or is it just me?

Super simple yet so helpful feature! And thanks so much Aaron for fixing the issue that recently popped up!

Any chance that there could be an options to make feeds automatically open in the background with a regular mouse click instead of a hotkey? The default way I use feedly is like this, so it'd help me and I'm sure some others out as well!

This extension is so awesome! I use it everyday. I wish the publisher would make this extension work on Firefox as well.

Just stopped working and I can't seem to figure out why.

stopped working today, doesn't do anything at key press. you broke it with this update?

Does what it says. Handy

I'd have loved the option to auto "mark as read" the opening tab as well. Anyway, good job on the extension :)

This extensions addresses a gap in feedly's keyboard shortcuts. It would be nice if it had an option to mark as read when opening in the background though.

Works like a charm.

doesn't work for me ???

Doesn't seem to work :/

Thanks for the quick fix to version 0.6 to fix the new Feedly url! --- Highly necessary and useful extension. I don't know why it isn't built in to Feedly directly.

Outstanding! It's my primary way of dealing with Feedly. Thanks dude! The dev also pushes timely updates when Feedly breaks things. Pro level!

Normally great, but has stopped working today - changes at Feedly maybe?

Stopped working for me as well. Some changes at Feedly obviously, otherwise does what it says nicely.

Usually this has been great, but as of today it has ceased to work. eidut: next morning, and FBT asked for new permissions, and seems to be working again! good show.

Sadly, the extension suffers from focus issues. Unless the user actually clicks on the Feedly item to set focus (even if the item is open), the extension might not trigger and the tab won't appear.

Great extension. Must have.

It works well but I have two major issues: (1) It doesn't mark as read when I open in the background (2) It opens the new tab at the end instead of next to the current page as it would if you used your mouse to open in background (or just the v) Still. Beggars can't (or at least shouldn't) be choosers so thanks for the free app!

Hopefully feedly just makes this a user-choice option but in the meantime thanks Aaron for creating this!!!

Thank you thank you thank you thank you! Works fine with default ; as shortcut key.

This is a great idea. However, it is not working for me at all, with either v, b, or the ; key. Is something the matter?

I need a open all unreaded as Tabs hotkey. Is this possible?

Does exactly what it says and does it well.

Just stopped working this morning. I rely on this extension and hope it gets fixed soon.

Thank you this is so handy for power users

I still can't get it to do anything, no matter what hotkey I choose. :( Update: Well, it's been fixed and works just as advertised. Fantastic! :D

Fantastic! Thanks for the quick update.

The developer reacted immediately to the changes imposed by Feedly and updated the extension accordingly. Works perfectly again!

Simple & to the point. Works as advertised.

Awesome!
