## Review summary

Users broadly find Save Tabs useful for saving and restoring their current tab set and appreciate how easily it restores tabs after a restart. However, feedback highlights notable limits: it only preserves the immediately previous session, with no multi-session history; instructions on how to restore or what exactly is saved are unclear; some report compatibility problems (e.g., LM22.2). Others expected a file-based export/restore or more flexible tab management, and a few raised security/privacy concerns. Overall, it performs its core function but with limited, sometimes confusing, functionality.

### Pros

- Restores all open tabs after restart/closing.
- Saves all currently open tabs for easy restoration.
- Very easy to use and intuitive for the core function.
- Handy for restoring accidentally closed tabs and on restart.

### Cons

- Limited to the immediately previous session; no multi-session history.
- Poor or missing instructions on how to restore and what exactly is saved.
- Compatibility issues reported (e.g., not working on LM22.2).
- Does not export to a file or provide an explicit export/restore workflow.
- Security/privacy concerns / NoScript warnings about data access.
