Flow (Tab Saver) Extension

Welcome to Flow!

Flow is your bookmark bar reimagined.

Do you:
1. Frequently open set of tabs?
2. Organize your windows and tabs by browsing flows? (Work, Research, Shopping, etc.)
3. Leave tabs and windows open for later?
4. Want to improve battery life and increase your computer’s speed?

With one click, Save, Group and Access your browsing flows.

Did you know open Google Chrome tabs and windows significantly reduces battery life - even idle ones! This is because it over-utilizes your Device's CPU capacity by allowing tabs to execute scripts in the background, which in turn also makes your device run slower.

Want to avoid this?

Use Flow!

Flow aims to enhance your browsing experience by not only organizing your various flows, but de-clutter your browser User Interface and better allow you to focus on whats in front of you and achieve flow. It also aims to help save these flows for later - be it for work, pleasure or otherwise.

You can access these flows on all devices with Google Chrome by logging into your gmail account associated with Chrome.

We DO NOT collect any user data.

--------------------
What is flow? (not to be confused with the name of this extension)

In positive psychology, a flow state, also known colloquially as being in the zone, is the mental state in which a person performing some activity is fully immersed in a feeling of energized focus, full involvement, and enjoyment in the process of the activity. In essence, flow is characterized by the complete absorption in what one does, and a resulting transformation in one's sense of time.
