- (2025-03-05) Mark Marino: This was a useful extension, until it was de-listed recently. Anybody got suggestions for an alternative?
- (2025-02-12) Melisa K. Savich (Mel): I love this extension, especially when I pair it with the Merge Windows extension by SingleClickApps. My workflow is Merge All Windows > Sort All Tabs > Extract this domain > Create tab group. Super easy to manage hundreds of tabs I’ve left up! Very sad to see Google’s warning that “This extension may soon no longer be supported because it doesn’t follow best practices for Chrome extensions.” Please push an update!
- (2024-11-12) Johan Ternström: This was really great! Chrome says it'll stop working soon? The "extract this domain" is hard to live without now. Any other extension has this?
- (2024-10-04) Bartosz Wawrzycki: I tried it. I installed it. I clicked sort this window on saved tabs from previous session, which keeps them splashed randomly. It works within 5 seconds, all tabs were sorted according to their websites of origin. Mega. Superb. Thanks. Oh, and I work on the latest Opera - it's on chromium engine, but it works just as fine, as here in Chrome.
- (2024-04-28) Thierry L: Small problem in latest version: When sorting tabs, some of the tabs get inserted in Grouped tabs. I think the groups should be excluded when sorting al tabs. Or have the option to include or exclude groups. Apart from that the app is great! :) Thanks! - Will correct Review. Did not find an other way to contact Developer.

- (2024-03-30) steven lu: 4/5. will give 5/5 if it doesn't reload all my youtube tabs and cause all tabs playing at the same time while pulling a ton of cpu power.
- (2024-03-25) Vinsen Muliadi: Rating 4/5. Will give 5/5 if it has a keyboard shortcut.
- (2024-02-29) nanvon: Great, I need a plugin that sorts by tab name, it's very fast
- (2024-02-03) Some Guy Online: Works as intended; the only reason I'm not giving it a 5-star is that I wish I did not have to chose what kind of sort or sort range; if you are running the current instance of Chrome in which you are operating this add-on then the scope should be all tabs within this instance, by default; so essentially one click on the add-on icon should sort all the tabs in this instance.
- (2024-01-26) Andrew Zeng: It's working fine, I like it.
- (2024-01-04) Paolo Bugnone: It doesn't sort tabs properly, the thing it's supposed to do.
- (2023-12-07) Maximilian Hoffmann (Naxey): It sorts all tabs for all or a specified window. However it doesn't respect groups and just swaps tabs between them as it pleases while sorting. If it would sort and respect groups I'd give 5 Stars.

- (2023-08-15) doesn't work "Sort This Window", tried several times on different version the UX is terrible - "Extract This Domain" extracts from all the windows, but not from the current one, so I've lost tracking of all the windows I had
- (2023-04-23) Beau Gunderson: No longer works now that Chrome suspends tabs to save memory. This plugin needs to be updated to use the `pendingUrl` attribute of the tab object to get the URL for those tabs. A workaround is to visit every tab so that they are all resident, then use this plugin to sort them. This is annoying if you have hundreds of tabs open, however.

- (2023-04-21) John Lockard: I wish it could sort selected tabs. I don't always want *ALL* tabs in my window to be sorted, but only some. For example, I'm shopping and have opened up tabs for all the products I might be interested in, and I'd like to sort only that stores open tabs. Selected the range of tabs and then sort.

- (2023-02-13) Russ Clarke: I'd love to revise my rating to 5* but I have an issue with the way this works in Edge (yeah I know, but I'm trying to earn MS Points!) ... Basically, it just doesn't behave well with vertical tabs, most time I can only get them sorted if I temporarily disable the vertical feature. It also doesn't seem to play nice with tab suspenders like Marvelous Suspender, once a tab has actually been unloaded. That said, I very often have 100's of tabs open and this can be a life saver!

- (2022-10-21) Goku Gohan: I love the extract this domain feature but the sort order from 'sort this window' leaves something to be desired at least for me... a number of the websites I use have a url format of www.domain.com/author/storych# or www.domain.com/author/story/ch# and I was looking for a way to group the stories of a given author together and if I have multiple chapters of the same story open to group those together within the grouping with the author

- (2022-04-25) Void WL: Good tool but "sort this window" is broken and I have tons of huge windows some of which are already sorted in groups so this is annoying.

- (2022-02-15) Sam Shef: Not the sort I was looking for. I wanted to sort by date/time tab created I guess it sorts alphabetically by domain? I have no idea.

- (2022-02-08) Brice Tan: This extension does a good job at sorting, but not exactly in the way you may have wanted it to be. It messed up all the tabs across all my windows. The buttons don't really work well, is buggy and messes everything up. Taking tabs out of tab groups too.

- (2021-08-19) David Cloutman: This is okay. It gets things close to what I want and that helps a bit, but as far as I can tell it only sorts by page title. I really need something that is more flexible and with a saner default. My preference would be to sort by domain, then subdomain, then by page title, though in some cases I might want to sort by URI instead, or even by a named parameter, positional parameter, or off of a regex result of any of the above. I realize that's a pretty full list of desired features, but even one or two would be a huge improvement.
