Tab Save

One-click download for files from open tabs, lists of URLs, or scholarly article PDFs from their associated DOI.

What is Tab Save?

'Tab Save' is a simple, yet efficient Chrome extension designed to significantly speed up the process of file downloading. With a single click, users can save images, PDFs, or any file type open in a tab. Furthermore, the extension provides an option for users to input a list of URLs for swift downloads in one location. An experimental feature currently offered is the retrieval of scholarly article PDFs using their associated DOI numbers. Future updates include link filtering by file types on webpages.
