About Tabby — Tab Manager & Memory Saver
Tabby is a fast, private tab manager and memory saver — built to replace the
heavy, over-permissioned suspenders of the past.
Too many tabs slowing your browser to a crawl? Tabby frees memory using
Chrome's built-in tab-discard engine, so inactive tabs stop hogging RAM but
stay right where you left them. Click one and it reloads instantly.

WHAT TABBY DOES
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
🧹 Close duplicate tabs
Spot and close duplicates in one click — or let Tabby close them
automatically as they open.
🔍 Search every tab, every window
Find any open tab by title or URL and jump straight to it.
💤 Auto-suspend idle tabs
Tabs you haven't touched in a while are suspended to reclaim memory.
Set your own idle threshold (default 30 minutes).
🛡️ Smart exceptions
Never suspends the tab you're using, pinned tabs, tabs playing audio,
or any site on your personal allowlist.
🔢 Tab-count badge
See how many tabs are open at a glance (optional).

PRIVATE BY DESIGN
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
• No account, no backend, no ads, no tracking.
• No content scripts and no access to page content or your browsing data.
• Just three permissions: tabs, storage, and alarms.
• Your settings sync across your own Chrome profiles and never leave your
browser.
Tabby uses Chrome's native tab-discard API instead of injecting replacement
pages — that's why it stays lightweight, safe, and out of your way.
Lighter tabs. Less memory. Zero clutter.
