About EclipseTabGuard - Smart Tab Suspender
EclipseTabGuard keeps your browser fast by automatically suspending tabs you haven't used in a while freeing up memory without closing anything.
How it works:
Tabs you haven't visited past a set time limit are quietly suspended in the background
• They stay visible in your tab bar, click one to instantly reload it
• Currently active, pinned, and audio-playing tabs are never touched
• A "Suspend Now" button lets you free memory on demand
Smart rules:
• Whitelist - add domains that should never be suspended (e.g. your email, Notion, GitHub)
• Blacklist - add domains that should always be suspended immediately (e.g. Reddit, YouTube)
• Tabs still loading are skipped by default
Settings:
Click the extension icon to configure the inactivity timeout, toggle rules, and manage your whitelist and blacklist. Everything syncs across devices.
Privacy:
EclipseTabGuard does not collect, store, or transmit any user data. All suspension logic runs entirely on your device no network requests are made by the extension itself.
