Save Tabs - Browser Session Manager
Extension Actions
A password-protected tab saver and session manager to store tabs in the current window, or all windows with tab grouping support
This extension saves tabs for later to prevent cluttering of the tab area. You can request to store tabs and close them to free the memory usage of these tabs when they are not needed. This extension uses the built-in sync API to allow storing in a machine and restoring in another one. Also, it is possible to protect stored tabs with a password. The extension uses the built-in crypto method to encrypt your tab data with the SHA-256 encryption key before storing them in your browser storage to protect data. Stored tabs keep their active and pinned states.
Features:
1. Save and store window dimensions
2. Save and restore incognito states
3. Save and restore tab's pinned state
4. Save and restore tab groupings and their properties (color, name, and collapsed state)
Notes:
1. There is no way to restore tabs if they are password protected and the password is forgotten.
2. By default, when a new session is restored, the session gets erased from the storage. You can use the Shift key while pressing a session to keep the session in storage.
3. This extension uses synced storage to allow the user to store and restore from multiple computers.
4. you can restore all session tabs in the current window by pressing the Ctrl (Command) key while restoring the session
5. You can edit a session from the popup view or ask the extension to update a session from the currently open tabs. This feature makes it possible to use the extension as a browser session manager.
6. This extension saves and restores tab groups and their properties.

- It saved my session, and is easy to use. I also did not ask for unnecessary rights, as other plugins did.

- There is absolutely no way to retrieve any of your saved tabs. This app should be removed from the app store and the publisher banned from submitting anything ever again. I lost weeks of tabs. I will delete this POS as soon as I am done with this review.

- Buggy - lost all my tabs - saved them, but no way to restore them. Apparently, the list of saved sessions show up in the popup dialog when you click on the icon. Didn't happen for me, and to several other people who raised the same issue a few years ago! Uninstalling now. :(

- Works poorly. Often doesn't save current window tabs. Sometimes saves - not regularly. Cannot see conditions why. Need another session manager. Nice icon though. ******* работает, кароч. Сохранаяет табы окна через раз. Если с бубном поплясать и поперетаскивать табы в новое окно, то можно добиться сохранения, но оно вам надо?

- Worked fine previously - on the two occasions that I tried to save all the tabs in one window - without a password. Today, I tried to save all tabs in all windows - without passwords. Then I tried the save and close all option. Neither of the two sessions appeared in the list of saved sessions. So the only way to get my tabs back is to work through the History. Maybe this extension is limited to a maximum of two saved sessions. Anyway, Save Tabs has turned out to be a disaster for me so I will be removing it after this review is posted.

- This piece of **** app deleted all the tabs that I was attempting to save. The tabs are completely irretrievable, hours of my time have been lost. Do not trust this piece of **** app as it'll invariably delete your tabs when it feels like it.
