How to Disable Google Chrome’s Tab Hover Cards

Google Chrome Hover Tab Card

Tab Hover Cards in Google Chrome help you discern tabs from one another when you have numerous pages open. The feature is enabled by default, but if you don’t like it, the pop-up card can easily be disabled using a Chrome flag.

Starting with Chrome 78, Tab Hover Cards will appear when you rest the mouse cursor over a tab. The hovercard is essentially a larger preview box that now shows the title and URL of the page.

If you want an image preview of the page within the Tab Hover Card, there’s a “Tab Hover Card Images” flag you can enable.

To disable the cards when you mouse-over a tab, you have to use an experimental flag in Chrome. When you enable/disable anything from chrome://flags, you use unfinished features that haven’t been tested on all devices and can sometimes misbehave. You’ll potentially run into a few bugs, so be careful when you play around with some of the available flags.

To get started, fire up Chrome, type chrome://flags into the Omnibox, press the “Enter” key, and then type “Tab Hover Cards” in the search bar.

Type "Tab Hover Cards" into the search bar to go directly to this flag.

Alternatively, you can paste chrome://flags/#tab-hover-cards  into the Omnibox, and then press the “Enter” key to go directly to the flag.
