Description from store
Rotten Tabs helps you fight tab overload by tracking how long each tab stays open. It automatically groups stale tabs, warns you visually, and eventually closes them β but with a twist: you can always save a tab by returning to it and staying focused on it until the countdown badge reaches zero, without switching windows or tabs.
π― Minimalist by design
No clutter, no complicated settings. One simple slider lets you choose how long tabs are allowed to live (1 to 7 days). Thatβs it.
π§ Brutally focused
Rotten Tabs doesnβt offer βundoβ buttons or restore panels. The only way to save a tab is to prove you need it β just stay on it until the countdown badge hits zero.
Features:
β’ Auto-grouping of tabs with visual stages: Rotten Tabs π€’ β Closing soon π©
β’ Countdown timer badge
β’ Option to rescue tabs before time runs out
