Features & Capabilities

Sticky Window Containers is a Firefox extension designed to simplify your browsing experience by ensuring all tabs within the same window share the same container as the first tab opened. This functionality allows users to effectively assign each browser window to a specific activity or context, such as work or personal use, by leveraging Firefox's container tabs feature.

By sticking all tabs in a window to a single container, this extension enhances productivity and organization, especially when combined with window management and workspace tools. Users can easily create a work window by opening a new window, setting the first tab to their "work" container, and rest assured that all additional tabs opened in that window will adhere to the same container, maintaining separation of browsing contexts seamlessly.

User Reviews

Users commonly praise the add-on for doing what it promises and for easing tab organization by auto-placing tabs into containers, which is especially valued for project management and separating tasks. However, multiple reviews note that it doesn’t work for them in certain cases and that initial behavior around the first tab or pinned tabs is confusing and can block access to default Firefox pages like settings or add-ons. When it works, it’s seen as a useful, workflow-enhancing tool; when it doesn’t, frustration prevails.

Pros

Does what it says and is quite useful.
Improves workflow by automatically grouping tabs into containers, aiding personal/work/project task separation.
Works well for many users and is appreciated as a reliable tool.
Popular for project management use, with some users calling it perfect for that workflow.

Cons

Not working for some users; reports of the add-on not functioning in multiple reviews.
Initial/pinned-tab behavior can be confusing and may block access to default pages like settings or add-ons, affecting container assignment.

Recent reviews

Does what it says on the tin. Quite useful. Wish it would allow manually opening in a new container with right-click > open in new container tab > no container

Is Sticky Window Containers Safe?

Risk impact

Risk impact measures the level of extra permissions an extension has access to. A low risk impact extension cannot do much harms, whereas a high risk impact extension can do a lot of damage like stealing your password, bypassing your security settings, and accessing your personal data. High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.

Sticky Window Containers requires some sensitive permissions that could impact your browser and data security. Exercise caution before installing.
