Aristides Gomez (ID: 0000004a478feda2) Voted 2 ★ - Updated 08/05/2022 After having like 5 groups of tabs, It doesn't save any more groups. and I dont like that the extension tells you "it saved" and when you try to find the group, is not there. So is very annoying to search for the groups of tabs that were closed

Lucas Shepherd (ID: 0000007b1a3df476) Voted 2 ★ - Updated 11/01/2021 This extension used to be good but it won't save any tab groups anymore. Says they are saved but no matter how I close chrome they are gone next time I use chrome. Goodbye Tabbie, it was real.

Maria Kuzmenko (ID: 0000009935bd70b0) Voted 1 ★ - Updated 10/25/2020 Lost all tabs - it shows them was saved, but with next start of Chrome list of saved tabs is clean and you can't restore them. Wish others to avoid such "ingenious" apps

Huzaifa Mazhar (ID: 0000008b3adb75a0) Voted 3 ★ - Updated 10/19/2020 The extension is simplistic and straight to the point, which is great when you just need to save all your tabs before closing, however, recently I've been having issues where it won't save the tabs anymore. Ill click save, and itll save it and show up as saved in the UI, but when I minimize the extension and open it again at a later time, theyre not there. I can only have 3 groups of tabs (granted there are alot of tabs in there) saved at most. I hope this is only an issue on my end and not a limitation, because that would kind of suck. I would like to be able to save many sets of tabs regardless of the space they take up.
