FEATURES

Save memory
Dramatically reduce memory usage and keep your computer running quickly, just by adding the Workona Tab Suspender. Suspended tabs are just like normal tabs, except they don’t use memory.

Auto-suspend tabs
Choose automatic tab suspension based on how many active tabs you have or how much time has elapsed. You can rest easy knowing that suspension is working behind the scenes to free up resources.

lytaiji Dai (ID: 0000009e18076db9) Voted 1 ★ - Updated 09/10/2024 Why a Tab Suspend plugin needs register a account? And it collects unnecessary privacy data.

Auzuru (ID: 000000cdaf00ce69) Voted 1 ★ - Updated 12/15/2023 There is a weird bug right now that instantly suspends an unused tab even though I set it at 30 minutes, and this causes immense lag because of how many tabs I have open. Edit 20.08.23: "Never suspend tabs that are playing audio or video" Suspends tabs that are playing audio or video... Edit 17.10.23: Login is broken since an entire week. You can login but once you try to change settings you're already logged out again. Edit 15.12.23: Pretty sure this kind of turned into a bitcoin miner, it spikes my CPU from 3-10% to nearly 75% for around 10-20 seconds each few minutes, either that or it is very badly programmed.

Joe Deville (ID: 000000506f341764) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 10/20/2023 Solid extension, does exactly what it says it does. That's rare in the 2023 SAAS space! Stay organized treat your machine like a vehicle.

Draz Reckned (ID: 0000006a9b007154) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 10/15/2023 Honestly... I gotta say, Workona is like the superhero of Chrome extensions, heck, even Chrome itself! Like, where have you been all my life? I mean, I've got 3 screens, and each screen usually has at least ONE window in them. In each window are usually between 3-45 tabs, + per, + window(s) *(times) screens! I installed Workona and; BAM, organized, streamlined, and sooOOoOooO fast! It's not even a pain anymore to suffer with Chrome's memory issues(memory leaks) because Workona is just magic and fixed it all! Honestly, the first time I really dug into it and started to understand and learn how amazing it is, was going to be, and now, even more-so will be; I was like, "This is unreal". ALL OF CHROME isn't a pain anymore for me, not thanks to the Workona's Suite of Extensions. The battle for supremacy in the war on Browsers in my head went juuuuust abouuuuuut, like this: *(Before Workona) "Uhhghhh, Chrome froze again. Guess I'm using FireFox for the moment." *(After Workona!)"Wow, I can just uninstall FireFox now!, 0% CPU Usage Chrom'ona, here IIiii coME!" And, btw I did end up keeping FireFox installed...well, cuz, you know... someone's gotta be backup when Chrome as an entirety of a browser crashes! Right!? I find it quite humorous that the, "understand and learn how amazing it is, was going to be, and now, even more-so will be -- became the; even more so, will, now, be, amazing! to learn and understand!" For me, it's an experience akin to playing a video game and finding an epic loot chest/monster that drops an end-game super-rare *insert quality type here* item. That's Workona and Suite. Adding more extensions to it... It can level UP!? That's Workona and Suite! I know it's sad, and whatever, but, I spent 20 whole minutes telling my Dad about it inside and out...for 20 minutes! But that was because it takes a LOT longer to explain all of Workona/Suite's features than just 20 minutes! He's even tech-literate!! and even he was impressed by my latest "haul of gems" find(regarding awesome chrome extensions). My close friend Jared? Five minutes into my word-regurgitating of basically the same material and he told me to "stop" ("Stop. Just.... stop. Please.)! LMAO! He stopped me because he didnt need any more details, since he already had his laptop open by that point and was reading the extension page about Workona for himself! Lololol. So...... yeah. If you're like me, or most/even some of this clicked with you while read my wall of text/life-story on the Workona Suite (Workona + Workona's Add-On Extensions) -- because of the Chrome Memory Leak issue OR/AND the eventual crash from having a gazillion tabs open like I like to have quick access to OR/AND are needing some order in your digital chaos?... Yeeeep: "Workona and Suite". Plus, the extensions would be like a cherry on top of your cold-*consumable* treat/substitute the cherry with whatever you like on top of those kinds of treats, lol Ok, ok, what I'm getting at here is that if the rating score for Chrome Extensions and what-not goes off of a 5/5 star rating then I'm "staking" my "stake" on the conviction I have that this is 6/5 stars. For me; I've been looking a very long time for this level, quality, detail, resource GIVING friendly extension(s!!), and MUCH more -- to solve all of the built up Chrome doubts I was gathering inside. So for me, at least: Finding a Unicorn, Seeing an Angel, Swimming with a Mermaid, Pulling a Magical Sword from a stone altar... all of these things **Combined** is equivalent to = Workona (And Suite of Extensions). Now, 'Side Note' for "some people": I don't care whomever says that AI wrote this review, because I typed it all up - backspaced a lot while typing it, and MAN...my "mm" key does that double press and I have to delete that everytime I press the letter (m). Which is ironic, because the double letter 'm' one sentence before in "quotes" was actually, purely-legit. Anyone that has a chance to read this, "*FEEL* the truth and conviction in how it's written and conveyed". It's not mistaken for AI. Final Letters: "Workona's Extension Suite is Fan-tab-u-la-mazing! Liek, go git it!, before the virtual quantity runs out!!(It Won't, so don't worry 😆) ~ Peace! 🕊
