User reviews

Users generally appreciate the extension's ability to recover accidentally closed tabs and its simplicity. However, multiple users report malware or PUP detections, raising security concerns. Performance degrades with many closed tabs, and some find that it fails to restore all closed tabs reliably. Limitations on the number of tabs recovered and loss of data after crashes are also noted. Despite these issues, many users have relied on it for a long time and find it helpful.

Pros

Useful for recovering accidentally closed tabs, including in incognito mode
Simple and easy to use with minimal needed functionality
Reliable for many users for extended periods of time
Helps prevent loss of tabs during unexpected browser closures or restarts

Cons

Reported malware and PUP (Potentially Unwanted Program) detections by multiple antivirus tools, causing distrust
Performance issues when many tabs are closed, with slow response times
Does not always restore all closed tabs, missing around 50% according to some users
Limitations like a cap on the number of recoverable closed tabs (e.g., 100 tabs)
Extension sometimes forgets saved tabs after crashes or restarts
