How to Switch Tab to Incognito Mode Easily in Google Chrome
1 min read
Summary
Incognito mode can be convenient if you do not want a website to be recorded in your browser history, but switching from a standard tab to Incognito mode can be awkward and time consuming.
There are a number of ways to make the switch to Incognito mode easier, including:
installing the Open Incognito Tab extension, which adds an icon to the toolbar to switch to Incognito mode with one click;
activating the page context menu, where you can select the “Open this tab in Incognito” option;
creating a shortcut for the websites you typically browse in Incognito mode;
if you frequently want to search for terms in Incognito mode, the Search Incognito extension allows you to do so from the context menu.
Another option is to use the inverted commas in the Chrome address bar to quickly open a standard URL in Incognito mode, but this method is not ideal if you are browsing a page with a complex URL.
