User reviews

Great RAM savings (40% in my case) and very discrete to use. No reorganisation of tabs, just put them to sleep... I miss 2 things: more granularity with timer (15 min steps is too much) and waking up on click, not on opening. Maybe configurable? This extension merits more attention and visibility!

What an awesome app. There are many apps which auto or click - close tabs and save them in a list which I feel is unconvinient. I want them to remain up there in the tab list, just don't use any CPU or RAM load if not actively open. This app is the only one which does that and it does it greatly. Very recommended!

Nice user interface, however I didn't wanted to restore tabs when I switch to them, instead click to restore is what I wanted. cannot find options to do that.
