Tabs Outliner Extension

Tabs Outliner is a fusion of tabs manager, session manager and an tree like personal information organizer. It’s also embed instruments that greatly help reduce open tabs count by making possible easily annotate and close-save open windows and tabs in their original context. And what’s more important - allow then working with there saved tabs practically in the same way as with open ones, thus greatly reducing resources usage.

It also implements one of the best ways to handle crashed sessions - an unfortunate reality for users with a habit of accumulating hundreds of open tabs.

= FEATURES AND CAPABILITIES =

☀ Complete Overview of all your open and saved tabs and windows, along with custom added notes and marks.

☀ Flexible and fully editable by Drag and Drop Tree - everything can be easily organized in logical hierarchies and delimited groups; unlike in other similar tools every node can be a parent for any other node, all items can be freely reordered to specify priority or importance. And all of this can be done not only with somewhere saved links - but with open tabs and windows!

☀ Close and save - just in one click you can preserve “in place” any tab or window in their original context and surrounding in the Tree. Saved windows and tabs can be freely mixed with those that are open. And as Tabs Outliner window is often active all the time, because it’s enormously useful to observe all currently active items, things saved in it does not fall out of the focus, as this often happen with other tools that save everything in some separate lists, so the actual action to close-save something to free resources become mentally much ease and really accomplished.

☀ Innovative Tabs Outlining And Organizing Features – you will be able annotate windows and tabs, add comments to them, summary of main ideas, to-do items. Text notes can be easily added in the Tree directly from web pages, just by Drag and Drop.

☀ Tree Style Tab feature - those who remember famous Firefox plugin with the same name immediately recognize inspired by it very useful way to relate tabs to one another. This feature relates newly opened tabs to the tab from which they were opened, which automatically builds strong context for all items and nicely visualize tabs relations.

☀ Crash Resistance and Restore Feature Done Right - no more hassles after browser crash or sudden system restart. No more being forced to all or nothing choice, like with the default Chrome crash restoration: to lose all of these “remind me of something” tabs, or to have again a completely unresponsive PC, if you load all of them back. This extension makes it possible to reopen only windows you need NOW, or even some individual tabs inside them, without losing others. Everything will be available to reopen anytime you decide and in the same context and place where they were crashed without consuming any resources, along with newly created tabs, as if you simply continue your session without any crash.

☀ Tabs List Exporter - easily export and share the annotated list of your tabs through Google Doc, Word, Evernote, email or some messenger. Hierarchies of windows can be exported individually simply by Drag & Drop. Or the whole tree can be saved as HTML file (by Ctrl-S in the main window).

☀ One Click Procrastination Stopper - Close-Save All currently open windows and tabs just in one click! Without losing all of the context and structure. Regain your attention and your PC responsiveness - momentary become ready again for some new work.

= PAID FEATURES=

Everything mentioned above can be used absolutely for free, but to support project there are some additional paid features that can be indefinitely enabled for a small one-time payment and an unobtrusive banner that show up once in few weeks to remind about their existence:

☀ Keyboard Shortcuts and Clipboard support which enables whole new dimension and speed for tree manipulations and editing by pro users.

☀ Access to frequent local backups that are saved every few minutes for restoring accidental edits or deletions or to review latest changes.

☀ Automatic Daily Backups to your Google Drive. Not only this secure your data this also enables possibilities to access your tree remotely from some other PC.

(ID: ) Voted 1 ★ - Updated 12/03/2024 I used to love this extension, but it stopped working some months ago. Double-clicking on a closed tab does nothing. Many other recent reviews also indicate that this extension has died.

Igor “IverCold” Verner (ID: 000000fc06f289f8) Voted 1 ★ - Updated 11/01/2024 UPD: Было 5 звёзд, но расширение перестало корректно работать, а разработчик перестал отвечать на какие-либо письма.

Tanuja Prasad (ID: 0000008be0e1b9e2) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 09/18/2024 Nothing else like it. Could be improved as with anything, but functionally everything I need. Sep 18 2024 This has been down since July 2024. The reason, as I understand it is that this app has not been upgraded to Google's new MV3 requirement. Could someone from the company please respond if you intend to upgrade? If not, I will look for other solutions. (I am a paid subscriber).

Ignat Remizov (ID: 000000e067da15ea) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 08/06/2024 Really useful! I can organize my tabs based on how I use my tabs throughout the day, I get to have folders of reference material like blogs, of various wikis and discussion forums, of different social media, of news articles that I'll read later, of different work sessions (web development, or business management, or design) and all of it is in an easy to see and switch fashion. When you have 1000's of tabs open, it is hard to go to the one you need, but with tab outliner I can just click the link and open the relevant tab. It is like bookmarks, but way more efficient and productive. Would suggest everyone to install this. Only thing is after a crash, is after using ctrl+shift+t, the outliner creates a new window without a hierarchy. I think it would be cool for the extension to identify that the tabs were returned from a crashed session, or any other previous session.
