Description from store

Too many tabs? Do you have a tab addiction? Tab Wrangler closes tabs that haven't been used recently.

See how Tab Wrangler can free your Chrome from tab clutter in our walkthrough: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jtP7pysqHY8

- Automatically closes idle tabs after designated time
- Prevents auto-closing of your chosen sites
- Saves closed tabs, keeps a list to easily re-open
- Doesn't close pinned tabs or tabs playing sound

Auto-closed tabs are stored safe and sound in the Tab Corral. Tab Wrangler is highly configurable and will save your computer and your focus from tab overload.

Very cool - it closes the opening sites itself after 1 sec. up to 60 min.

used to work great. now does not wokrk. the timer just keeps resetting and not closing any tabs.

genial

Cool but needs the AI tab grouping add-on badly, everyone wants that and the Chrome one is trash. Add that it is best in class, also add privacy info...do you see your tabs or other info?

A small but significant improvement to my quality of life. I almost never notice that the extension is tidying up my browser, and when I do need to look for a closed tab it's easy to find.

Kelechi Ukadike 2025-03-31

On reopening tabs in the corral, why does the extension open the tab on a new tab and then closes so that I have to open the extension again to do it all over; why not just stay open while I click on each tab in the corral. Sometimes it stays while I click each tabs, but only sparingly so that I cannot replicate the action. Feels random. Also, only works online? If I lose internet connection for just a bit, it doesn't work. Why?

Justin Walker 2025-03-15

Still doesn't work right. Timer resets when you change tabs. Shame because I used to love this extension.

Using on Opera gx, works for me! :) Set to check against all windows.

James Burrell 2025-01-12

shows a pinned tab when it is not pinned.

Life changing!!!!

pablo 2024-10-27

Doesn't work -Restarts the timer every time I go to another tab or open a new tab

Adrian Silesian 2024-10-26

unfortunately it doesn't work for me. it restarts the counter every time I close the browser!!!! Which is pointless!!

Chris Sherriff 2024-09-09

EDIT, this seems fixed. Thanks! --- OLD: This has stopped working! It no longer closes tabs :(

PixelPirate45 2024-08-04

does not close tabs after the set amount of time! only closes if I have the set amount of tabs open

Obaid Samadian 2024-07-12

Really helpful for those who have a problem with keeping too many tabs open which has negative impacts on their productivity.

Perfect <3

Bruce Schneider 2024-06-07

I love this extension, but it stopped working. Please fix. I have the latest version, too.

Banana Horizon 2024-05-31

Stopped working I think?

Amber Wallace 2024-05-26

I generally love this extension, but it recently stopped updating my corral count unless I restart my chromebook. Other than that it's great

Jason Rhodes 2024-05-09

This seems to have stopped working recently, and I'm not sure why? I also noticed the "Auto-close if there are more than" value is set to 20 but even after changing that, auto-close has stopped working. I'm not sure if there is another place to report this... Rating 4 starts because I've loved this extension for many years, and leaving off that last star just to draw attention to the fact that it's not working currently. Would do 5/5 when this is fixed. :)

Darius V 2024-05-08

Itt started not closing tabs. For example it should close in 30 minutes but this page https://vuejs.org/guide/essentials/reactivity-fundamentals stays way longer. I do not know if it closes any tab anymore, really noticed lot of tabs remain open for long time, it not used to be like this. Then I noticed there is setting "Auto-close inactive tabs if there are more than" and its value was 20. How? It used to be ~5 . Thats why they were not closing.

Cacá 2024-04-30

Perfect!

Gwang Jing Chew 2024-04-29

Why it will still auto unlock the tap that already locked?

Ddd 2024-04-28

Easy to use GUI, simple, doesn't force you to learn how to code to use! *sweating*

Vishal Isharani 2024-03-29

Just awesome!

Jan Jelschen 2024-03-17

Been using this for years now, and it is certainly the extension I rely the most on – even though I never think about it anymore, because it just does its thing. Absolutely essential!

Deb H 2024-02-07

This is the feature you didn't know you needed!! After getting hooked on a similar functionality in the Arc browser, I came looking for a tool I could use on my locked-down work PC. Tab Wrangler is awesome, it's so great to be able to open tabs as needed without having to clean them up manually. I set it to retain tabs that are in Groups, to make it easy to keep larger sets of frequent tabs without designating them as "locked."

Miguel Juarez 2023-12-31

Absolutely amazing!!! thank you so much for this great and useful extension.

Spencer Rothfuss 2023-12-12

Does exactly what it advertises

go tan 2023-10-15

カウントダウンは始まるが、全くタブを閉じてくれない。解決策があったら教えて欲しい。 The countdown starts but does not close the tab at all. Please let me know if there is a solution.

すごい便利です!開発者様ありがとうございます!

Worked for a week or two then at some point totally failed to close tabs that have been open for longer than 10 minutes.

Кривое расширение.. Допиливать надо!

John McCarthy 2023-03-16

Have used this app for years and have closed around 80k tabs with it. Would love the option to 'keep unique tabs' open meaning that the oldest of a domain group would stay open. One of the most useful extension I have ever had, if not the most useful.

Seriously click you for this extension. It's always been so annoying to select and quit individual taps throughout the day. I knew there was a solution for automatically closing tabs, but I never got around to checking Google extensions. Again, thank you so much for your work.

To the developer: great work on creating this extension! I needed it for the exact same reason that led you to create it (in your video). I added the extension yesterday and am very pleased with it. Thank you!

I really like this extension but I wish there was a way I could categorize my tabs or group them.
