- Rated 1 out of 5by Rohan, 5 years agoI have tried this addon on two of my laptops. Both systems stops responding shortly after installing and remains in hung state for around 20 minutes, then firefox crashes and system comes back to life.
using ubuntu 20.04.
Edit - Now that i have deleted add-on. it is still showing container option in right-click menu! - Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 16368271, 5 years agoSince Sync feature was introduced for this add-on the container flag no longer comes back with session restore.
When I use containers that were created some time ago, tabs re-open in those containers, correctly.
When I create new containers these tabs open in normal tabs when the session is trestored, so the container flag is lost for them.
Whatever may be the difference between older and newer containers - since the sync feature was added this behaviour is happening, rendering the add-on useless in my case. - Rated 1 out of 5by EFra, 5 years agoIt was more annoying than anything else. Once I removed it, I had to restart Firefox 3 (three) TIMES to remove it from the context menu. Once should be sufficient. Certainly not twice, and definitely not THREE times.
- Rated 1 out of 5by bsapple, 5 years agoThe latest update ask for permission of 'Exchange messages with programs other than Firefox' and 'Control browser proxy settings', which is ridiculous for people who do not use Mozilla VPN.
It should only be an optional permission! - Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 12920934, 5 years agoCannot save settings for multiple container of a same site. And when I reload, the duplicates will gone or will only use one container.
Which is not what I expected. Well it does what it does but the way it does it makes me think the title is a bit misleading.
Multi-Account container? NO just call it Firefox Web Container please. Or Firefox Multi-Web Container. - Rated 1 out of 5by TJnDB, 5 years ago
- Rated 1 out of 5by Logan, 5 years agowhy did you remove this functionality in the newest update to Firefox? why are you making the program worse rather than improving it?

- Rated 1 out of 5by Sylvain, 5 years agoBuggy as hell. Cors Issues and more than 400x issues not resolved. I don't understand how this extension can be recommended. The extension is broken by design and a pure non-sense.

- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 16161506, 6 years agoIt was never a really good extension, but with the new update it bacame totally unusable. how can you make such a small plugin so complicated and unintuitive, quite impressive

Remember to activate tab synchronization

posted 6 years agoWe have made a couple fixes in 7.0.1: We restored keyboard arrow navigation and changed the main panel behavior back so that clicking on the container opens a tab. - Rated 1 out of 5by Rick, 6 years agoHow is this a Recommended Extension?
Mozilla doesn't have to follow their own rules?

This problem has existed for so long and apparently no one knows how to fix it.
And now you got the new Ui problem and new glitches, just check the recent reviews. So glad i knew not to update. - Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 13845155, 6 years agoIt went from being a good extension to something really bad, with just one update

As others have said, now I have to click multiple times to open a new container. I will wait for a few weeks just to see if they read our reviews, but if they don't, I will uninstall it. A shame, because I truly liked this extension.
- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 10244801, 6 years agoAfter latest update hundreds of temporary containers keep on showing up. I can delete them but they are back after a restart. Really crappy update!
- Rated 1 out of 5by asd, 6 years agodon't know what they're doing, it was doing fine and they decided to change everything, we have to click at least 6 times to open a new tab. who came up with this new feature? that guy must be a genius, definitely deserves a raise, what more will he add? i'm excited for the next updates, i hope they add captchas next

I can't just hit Control-Period and navigate up and down with my arrow keys to select the container I want. Please revert this change or allow switching back. At least make it possible to use the arrow keys to navigate.
- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 14679682, 6 years agoSehr umständlich. Einsortieren von offenen Tabs nicht möglich. Nicht praxisgerecht und kaum brauchbar!
- Rated 1 out of 5by MiguelAlvarez, 6 years ago
- Rated 1 out of 5by HonestReviews, 6 years agoRecommended because it's made by mozilla. Does not install, corrupt file error message. Why you recommend an addon that you have not tested?
