Shawn Park (ID: 0000004a7194c67d) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 03/30/2021 Works great! I use this in a strange scenario. I have 10+ tabs that I always keep open in Chrome (stocks, email, news, etc). But sometimes, I need to open another 20+ or so tabs in the morning to check on other things I need to do, and then before I know it, I have 30+ tabs open all at once and it can be overwhelming. I now put my normal 10 tabs into Wardrobe, and then open the other 20+ tabs and do my work, and then when I am done, I close all my tabs, and then I bring my normal 10 tabs back out of Wardrobe. It works great for this scenario! Good job!

Валентина Черная (ID: 00000035e1f7c379) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 03/20/2021 I use it and I like it! It works literally as it described. For example, I keep in Wardrobe a few tabs with my morning exercises, take it out in the morning and put it back right after I'm done with my routine. Try it if you like keeping things in order:)
