Summary

When joining a Zoom meeting via a browser click, the desktop app is launched. The opened tab will redirect to a "status=success" URL when the desktop app successfully joins, leaving behind an open browser tab you have to close.

This addon closes those tabs automatically as soon as they redirect to "status=success"

User reviews
Unfortunately this extension closes the tab before Zoom can open, effectively canceling the action. An equivalent extension in another browser has a timer so that the tab stays up for 5 seconds or more, leaving enough time for Zoom to open. If this one did the same thing, it would be 5 stars. As it is, it's not usable.
