Tabs Aside

Set your open tabs aside and store them for later. They will be stored in a new folder in your bookmarks and can be restored all at once via the sidebar. https://github.com/tim-we/tabs-aside

Tabs Aside is a Chrome extension designed to help you manage your open tabs efficiently by setting them aside and storing them for later use. When you activate the extension, your open tabs are saved into a new folder within your bookmarks, allowing you to declutter your browser without losing important pages. This extension supports restoring all saved tabs simultaneously via a convenient sidebar or directly from the bookmarks menu, streamlining your workflow.

Please note, Tabs Aside does not support tabs with privileged URLs (such as local files), due to browser policy restrictions. The extension's source code is openly available on GitHub, ensuring transparency and community trust. With a focus on simplicity and productivity, Tabs Aside is an ideal tool for users who frequently juggle multiple tabs and need an easy way to organize and revisit them later.

Extension safety

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.

Tabs Aside requires a few sensitive permissions. Exercise caution before installing.

Risk likelihood
Risk likelihood measures the probability that a Firefox add-on may turn malicious. This is determined by the publisher and the Firefox add-on reputation on Firefox Browser Add-ons, the amount of time the Firefox add-on has been around, and other signals about the Firefox add-on. Our algorithms are not perfect, and are subject to change as we discover new ways to detect malicious extensions. We recommend that you always exercise caution when installing a Firefox add-on.

Tabs Aside has earned a fairly good reputation and likely can be trusted.
