Last month, Apple started rolling out the new Safari 15 update for Mac users running macOS Big Sur and macOS Catalina. The new Safari version, which is also available on macOS Monterey, brings various new features like tab grouping, automatic HTTPS upgrade, and start page sync. However, one feature that received the most criticism is the new tab design that makes it hard to differentiate between active and inactive tabs. So now, a developer has released a dedicated extension for Mac users to recognize active tabs while browsing the web using Safari on their Mac.

For those who are wondering why it is difficult to differentiate active and inactive tabs in the new Safari version, it is because the new Safari inverts the contrast difference in active and inactive tabs when compared to the older version.

The ActiveTab Safari extension is currently available on the Mac App Store. However, it is worth mentioning that it is a paid tool and requires a one-time payment of $1.99 (~Rs 149).
