User reviews
Simple Tab Sorter is praised for its straightforward, effective tab sorting by URL or title, preserving pinned tabs, and a lightweight, ad-free experience. Users find it saves time managing numerous tabs. However, multiple users note it struggles with sorting inside tab groups accurately, and recent updates unexpectedly sorted tabs across all Chrome windows, disrupting users' workflows. The custom sort option can be confusing, and older Chrome versions may experience issues after upgrading the extension.
Pros
- Simple and effective functionality that works as intended
- Sorts tabs by URL or title, which suits most users' needs
- Does not disturb pinned tabs or tab groups during sorting
- Lightweight with no ads, bloat, or excessive permissions requests
- Free and easy one-click sorting, saving users time when managing many tabs
Cons
- Issues with sorting tabs inside tab groups, as it is less accurate
- Recent updates caused the extension to sort tabs across all Chrome windows without warning
- Some confusion or difficulty using the 'custom' sort option
- Occasional compatibility problems with outdated Chrome versions
