"Tab Groups Helper" is a Chrome extension designed to integrate Chrome Tab Groups with Workona, ensuring your grouped tabs remain intact through browser closures, workspace switches, and restarts.

The Tab Groups Helper enables support for Chrome Tabs Groups in Workona, so they stay safely in place whether you close workspaces, switch workspaces, or close your browser.

This extension requires a Workona account.

FAQ

Why do I need this extension? The Workona Tab Manager doesn’t currently support Chrome Tab Groups. If you’re using both Workona Tab Manager and the tab groups feature in Chrome, this means tab groups will be lost when you close workspaces, switch workspaces, close the browser, or experience a browser restart. This extension prevents that from happening by adding support for Chrome Tab Groups. After adding this extension, you can safely use Chrome Tab Groups alongside Workona (no other steps are necessary).

Why isn’t support for tab groups already included in the Workona Tab Manager? Due to recent changes in Chrome Web Store extension requirements (related to Manifest v3), adding support for Chrome Tab Groups presents technical challenges that will take time to overcome. Our core extension, the Workona Tab Manager, will eventually support tab groups with no need for an additional extension. In the meantime, adding this extension will keep your tab groups safe and organized.

I have attempted so many time to get this to work but only leads to the web store.

Esta decepcionando mucho, de nada me sirve tener mis ventanas guardadas si esta app no funciona para su único propósito. Van 3 veces, en las pocas semanas que lo voy usando, que va fallando, se cierra el grupo de pestañas, estaba pensando seriamente en comprar la versión pro, pero viendo que falla en algo tan básico, simplemente no vale la pena.
