These summaries are automatically generated weekly using AI based on recent user reviews. Chrome Web Store does not verify user reviews, so some user reviews may be inaccurate, spammy, or outdated.

Good options for what tabs to close (newest, oldest, etc.).
Option to pin tabs to ignore when closing.
Functional plugin with different options for tab closing.

Cons

Settings do not save correctly.
Recent updates caused significant issues and bugs, including loss of tabs.

Most mentioned

Works well but has bugs that affect functionality.
Issues with saving settings and tab restoration after updates.

User reviews

Works well but it never remembers the settings I save it on - if I save 10 tabs, close the newest, then sometimes it will revert to the old options, closing 5 tabs and my oldest ones. I would love it if the settings saved correctly every time.

Worked great as part of my tab organization toolbox, up until today. Used it to count/limit the amount of tabs I had per window. New update killed all but 10 of the 400+ tabs I had open. Doesn't show the number of tabs per window anymore. Closed all my tabs individually, so the Chrome history function was unable to restore all the tabs in my windows. "Recently discarded tabs" only showed up to 100. Even after saving the max number of tabs as 50, restoring tabs after Chrome closed still killed everything but 10 tabs (again). Hopefully you can fix the bugs, but I'm too stressed from losing tabs to use it right now.

September 1, 2024 update broke it (today). You can't set the tabs on the pop-up. It opens an entire page (which doesn't work). Uninstalled after 5 years of use.
