The most feature-packed tab manager. Save & organize your tabs, sync across devices!
TabPlus Extension
Tab++ is inspired by similar extensions like OneTab, only with **WAY** more features... Like folders, cloud-syncing, easy backup and restore, and more!
# Note: Usage help can be found in the options page. #
NEW IN v1.7.1
- Code minified to save space
- Fixed version name glitch
- Adjusted drag delay
- Dragging a tablist triggers a view redraw as it should
NEW IN v1.7.0:
- Ported to the new manifest v3 API.
- Total codebase rewrite with asynchronous architecture and service workers, for massively improved performance and stability.
- Fixed graphical bugs on loading screen in newer Chrome(/Chromium) versions.
- More error messages (instead of failing silently, without telling you!)
- Automatic restore-from-backup on critical sync error. Say no more to the sync tab eating your tabs into the void because your internet is slow.
- INFINITE SCROLLING! (Yeah boiii, now you can legit have 10,000+ tabs with zero lag! Tabs load via pop-in, as you scroll, similar to Discord and other messengers.)
