Browser Tabs

Interacting with your configured web apps inside the secure browser.

Browser Tabs #

The client displays configured web addresses inside built-in browser tabs powered by Microsoft Edge.

What Are Tabs? #

Every app you configure in your web dashboard (e.g., an AI chat tool, a search engine, or a custom URL) appears as a separate tab in your OneMoreBrain sidebar.

  • These tabs use Microsoft Edge browser technology.
  • The built-in browser keeps its cookies and browsing data separate from your regular browser. Developer tools, default context menus, and pop-up windows may be disabled.

You can switch between active tabs in two ways:

  1. Mouse: Simply click on the desired app icon/name in the left sidebar.
  2. Keyboard (Recommended):
    • Press Ctrl + Shift + Right Arrow to move to the Next Tab.
    • Press Ctrl + Shift + Left Arrow to move to the Previous Tab.

Auto-Load and Sync #

  • Tabs marked as default by your account are initialized when you log in.
  • Other tabs are initialized when you click Open or select them for the first time.
  • Use Sync Tabs to pull a changed app list from the account. Syncing preserves open tabs that still exist and removes apps no longer assigned to the account.
  • Pop-up windows are blocked inside embedded tabs. Sites that require a new window may not complete that flow.
  • The built-in browser keeps its own cookies and browsing data. A login cookie or session in your normal browser is not automatically shared with OneMoreBrain.

Safe Pasting inside Tabs #

When working inside a tab, standard interaction is available subject to the embedded browser restrictions. For text transfer to another application, the client provides Human Paste and Unicode Paste (Ctrl + Shift + P and Ctrl + Shift + V); neither guarantees that the target accepts posted messages.
