About Tabs++

Latest update What's improved since the Chrome Web Store version (2.3.3) Things you'll notice Pinned & grouped tabs are safer If the browser crashes or force-quits, your pinned and grouped tabs are now automatically saved. When you reopen, the popup footer has a one-click "Restore" button to bring them all back. Closing a pinned tab now puts it right back where it was (hibernated), instead of sometimes creating an extra empty tab alongside it. Pinned tabs now remember the URL you originally pinned them at — even after browsing away and restarting the browser. They always wake up at the right page. Closing tabs is cleaner When you close a pinned or grouped tab and the tab next to it was hibernated, it no longer wakes up on its own. Before, closing a pinned tab would accidentally wake the sleeping neighbor. Closing many tabs at once no longer leaves behind stray empty tabs. Bookmark import actually respects your folders "Insert All Bookmarks in New Window" now creates one tab group per folder you actually created — not just one giant group per Chrome section ("Bookmarks Bar", "Other Bookmarks"). Each folder gets its own name and color. Command palette actions are more reliable The "Summon" (Insert) action for saved sets works again — it was silently failing in some cases. The palette won't hang or show "message port closed" errors when actions fail. Things under the hood Performance Opening large sets or bookmark folders is faster, especially when you already have lots of tabs open. Stability Uses less memory over time — old listeners don't pile up, and tracking data is cleaned up when tabs close. Codebase trimmed down significantly (dead code removed) — starts faster, runs leaner. Auto-hibernate can now also put grouped tabs to sleep when you're not using them (configurable in settings). ----------------------- Tabs++ is a professional, high-performance browser extension that transforms Google Chrome into a persistent, focused workspace with tab protection, workspace management, and 90+ developer-first tools. ### 🛡 Tab Protection & Persistence * Pinned Protection: Auto-recreates closed pinned tabs to baseline URL * Group Guard: Restores closed grouped tabs back into their group * Deterministic Hibernation: Restored tabs use zero RAM until clicked * Session Vault: Automatic backup of closed tabs for recovery ### 🗂 Tab Organization * Domain Auto-Grouping: Sorts tabs into Dev, Design, AI, Media, News, Social * Magic Organize: Auto-sort all tabs into domain-based groups * Deduplicate Tabs: Close all duplicate tabs in current window * Gather Standalone: Pull all ungrouped tabs into one group * Merge Duplicate Groups: Consolidate groups with identical names * Consolidate Domain: Group all tabs from same hostname together * Extract Group to Window: Move a tab group into its own window * Group All Tabs: Put all unprotected tabs into one group * Ungroup All Tabs: Flatten all grouped tabs in current window * Close Unprotected Tabs: Remove all unpinned and ungrouped tabs * Close Other Tabs: Close everything except the active tab ### 📦 Tab Sets — Workspace Management * Save Workspace as Set: Snapshot current pinned and grouped tabs * Save All Tabs as Set: Capture every tab in the window * Save Group as Set: Store a specific tab group * Launch Set: Open a saved set in a new window * Summon Set: Merge a saved set into the current window * Replace Workspace: Swap current window contents with a saved set * Stash Group: Save a group then close all its tabs * Export/Import Sets: Backup and restore tab sets as JSON ### ⚡ Performance * Hibernate Background Tabs: Discard all inactive tabs to free RAM * Hibernate Window: Sleep all background tabs in current window * Hibernate Pinned Tabs: Discard all pinned tabs to reclaim memory * Hibernate Current Tab: Sleep the active tab immediately * Smart Auto-Hibernate: Auto-sleep idle tabs after configurable timeout * Ruthless Clean: Auto-close stale tabs after configurable timeout * Mute Background Tabs: Silence all audible tabs except the current one ### 🎬 Media * Extract Media Assets: Scan and batch download images and videos * Smart Media Filtering: Filter by format, dimensions, ratio, and keywords * Staggered Downloads: Reliable bulk downloads with 150ms spacing * Tab Volume Control: Set current tab audio level (0–100%) * Volume Up/Down: Adjust tab volume by ±10% * Picture-in-Picture: Pop out any video into a floating overlay * Pause All Media: Stop all playing audio and video instantly ### 🧠 Focus & Productivity * Focus View (Reader Mode): Strip distractions for a clean reading layout * Zen Fullscreen: Enter fullscreen with all browser UI hidden * Pomodoro Timer: Focus/Break timers with desktop notifications * Cross-Tab Pomodoro Sync: Timer synced and visible across all tabs * Split View: Tile current and previous tabs side by side * Focus Guard: Redirect to NTP when closing the last tab * Auto-Collapse Groups: Collapse group when all its tabs are hibernated * Toggle Pin: Pin or unpin the current tab ### ⌨️ Command Palette * Instant Search: Find open tabs, history, bookmarks, and actions * Bangs: Quick external search (!yt, !gh, !gpt, !mdn) * Action Mode: Type > to launch any extension command * Tab Switching: Jump to any open tab by name instantly ### 🛠 Developer & Power Tools * Full-Page Screenshot: Capture entire scrollable page as PNG * Color Eyedropper: Pick any pixel, get hex, RGB, and HSL * Smart Unit Converter: Convert px↔rem, m↔ft, cm↔in, and more * Math Calculator: Evaluate arithmetic expressions in the palette * Color Converter: Hex to RGB and HSL with one-click copy * Case Converter: Transform text to slug, camel, snake, title case * Base64/URL Encoding: Encode and decode strings from the palette * Lorem Ipsum Generator: Generate placeholder text of any length * Copy Markdown Link: Copy current page as a markdown …
