Review summary

Users praise Tab Wrangler for organizing tabs with a corral, cleaning up and exporting tabs, and its timer-based auto-close. However, recurring issues include timer persistence across restarts being unreliable and default rules that can cause tabs to be closed or lost unexpectedly. Some users also report the addon enabling by default can disrupt sessions.

Pros

Corral feature keeps the tab list clean and allows cleanup and export
Timer-based auto-close feature helps prevent tab hoarding and crashes
Auto-lock unread tabs feature
Helps reduce overwhelm when many tabs are open

Cons

Timer resets on browser restart/reload, causing auto-closure not to run as configured
Dangerous default rules can wipe or misplace tabs (e.g., aggressive auto-close thresholds and memory limits)
Extension can install enabled by default and disrupt sessions

2026-02-14	Fi*****	The tab time counters simply started resetting every time I launched Firefox - the addon essentially doesn't function.

2026-01-14	du*****	I've tried lots but after a long search this is the only extension I have been happy with for managing my tabs as someone prone to tab hoarding. The corral automatically keeps my tab list clean and I can clean it up as well as export them to elsewhere so can save them and empty the corral periodically.

2025-08-30	Ma*****	Tab Lock (also "Doesn't close pinned tabs") does not work. I installed specifically for this feature. FF 142.0.1 And how about adding the ability to completely DISABLE features? For instance, what if I don't want ANY tab to be auto-closed for ANY reason. How do I prevent that?
