About Mono Tab
Mono Tab keeps you focused by enforcing a simple rule: one tab at a time.
When you open a new tab, your previous tab is automatically "parked" — saved and closed, but not gone. All your parked tabs live in a searchable sidebar, ready to restore with one click.
KEY FEATURES:
• One-Tab Focus Mode
Toggle mono-tab enforcement on/off anytime. When ON, opening a new tab automatically parks your current one. Turns off when you close the sidebar.
• Favorites
Star any tab to pin it to the top. Favorites are protected from auto-parking and always accessible.
• Smart Search
Instantly find any tab across your open tabs, parked tabs, and recent browsing history.
• Time-Grouped Organization
Tabs organized by Today, Yesterday, This Week, and Older — so you always know where to look.
• Privacy First
All data stays local on your device. Nothing is sent to external servers. Your browsing stays private.
HOW IT WORKS:
1. Open the sidebar and toggle Mono Tab ON
2. Open a new tab → your current tab gets parked
3. Find your parked tab in the sidebar → click to restore
4. Star important tabs → they stay open and always visible
5. Close the sidebar → Mono Tab turns off automatically
Perfect for researchers, writers, and anyone drowning in tabs who wants a calmer browser.
