FormGhost — Never Lose Form Data Again Ever filled out a long form — job application, support ticket, survey, checkout — and lost everything because the page reloaded, crashed, or you accidentally closed the tab? FormGhost silently saves every keystroke as you type. When you return to that page, it instantly offers to restore your data with one click. How it works: Automatically detects and saves text inputs, textareas, dropdowns, checkboxes, and radio buttons Shows a discreet toast notification when saved data is found: "Restore?" — one click brings everything back Works on every website, including login forms, signups, contact forms, job applications, and more Privacy first: All data stays on your device — zero network requests, zero tracking, zero cloud Password fields and file inputs are never saved Data auto-expires after your chosen retention period (default: 7 days) Features: Auto-save with 500ms debounce — no performance impact One-click restore via toast notification Badge icon shows saved field count per page Popup dashboard to manage all saved pages Configurable retention period (1–30 days) Works with React, Vue, Angular, and all modern frameworks Dark mode support SPA-friendly — works on single-page apps with dynamic navigation Zero configuration required — install and forget Permissions explained: storage — saves form data locally on your device activeTab — reads current page title for saved data display FormGhost is the modern replacement for the beloved Lazarus Form Recovery, rebuilt from scratch for Manifest V3.
