- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 17292257, 3 years agoTab Manager is a brilliant piece of software/add-on, I use it continually for finding pages, searching for information and just leave useful tabs open and use it as an excellent search on my history.
I really push the software, at the moment over 2300 pages/tabs open in firefox, one window! Doing a search on all open tabs usually find the page I looking for and if wanted can open a group of tabs in another window and know all the pages open are probably useful, it's like an intelligent favourites from the browser history. Many thanks Markus and best wishes from the UK and other software developers.

- Rated 4 out of 5by kn2, 3 years agoGood extension with some peculiarities. Opening of saved sessions don't work from pop-up, but only from tab menu.
- Rated 1 out of 5by steam643, 3 years agoI downloaded and installed Tab Manager Plus for Firefox last week. I sorted through about 150 tabs the manager seamed to be what I needed. I had 4 windows open that I was sorting into named Hobie's, Financials. Truck stuff, and General where I was keeping tabs that didn't fit the other three. I got tabs the way I wanted them and decided to see what happens when I turn off Firefox. When I restarted the tab that I called General was gone and with it all of the tabs in it. What did I do wrong? Is there any way to get them back? I tried the history but there are only a few from that window. I tried to rebuild the window with what I had then restarted again. Once again the General window was gone. This program looks like just what I need. It also likes to delete the names that I assign to different windows. I just recently had a power outage and once again the General window was gone! What am I doing wrong? I just had to restart my computer and now i have lost another group. I'm getting rid of this thing! If I wanted to reduce the number of tabs I would have just deleted them myself.

- Rated 4 out of 5by Tomas, 3 years agoGreat app with a lot of potential and I am using it all the time. But there is a massive bug. When I close the firefox and reopen it, all the tabs names are shifted and randomly allocated to one another and I have to go one by one and set the correct names againg which is very, very painful. Please, for the love of humanity solve it.

- Rated 3 out of 5by Firefox user 13563640, 3 years agoJust installed this extension for searching-finding tabs in "containers" among hundreds of open tabs across many browser windows as suggested by someone over in the support forums.
I only need this BECAUSE I have those hundreds of open tabs (though I seriously need to tidy up!).
See: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1360159#answer-1465135
However (per that posting), it seems to have introduced an overall sluggishness, hesitation and slowed responsiveness to using Firefox. Perhaps an update could address this?
Otherwise, a nice find -- thanks!
(later today, after many hours of browsing)
Unfortunately, I have disabled (not yet removed) this extension as I've grown tired of the performance impact due to constant hesitations and long load times of new web pages, when scrolling, switching tabs, etc.
Perhaps it works acceptably for those with far fewer tabs. Too bad for me, though... - Rated 5 out of 5by Saif H, 3 years ago

- Rated 3 out of 5by Firefox user 14831100, 3 years agoWon't stay pinned on all tabs, tried with active-pinned-tab but that other add-on doesn't work properly either. Makes it very hard to use.

posted 3 years agoHi!
I'm unfortunately not sure what feature you mean. You can pin one or multiple tabs. That's about it.
This add-on doesn't advertise functionality like active-pinned-tab. - Rated 5 out of 5by BW, 3 years ago

- Rated 3 out of 5by KaCii, 3 years agoIt's a good extension but I often face an issue where when I open a saved window it opens off screen and basically invisible, where i can see it if I hover over my firefox icon in the taskbar but if I try to open it up I can't see it at all (and cascading the windows doesn't help, it remains off-screen).
- Rated 2 out of 5by raywood , 3 years agoIt seemed to work, but I couldn't figure out how to get it to do anything.
Developer response
posted 3 years agoHi, it simply gives you an overview of the open windows and tabs. You can then move them around, or activate another window that's currently not visible.
Or you open the add-on and start typing - to quickly see all open tabs that match the text.
It's a very simple extension, with a lot of small hidden features to make browser usability nicer. - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 13829873, 3 years ago
- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 17082913, 3 years agoI've never bothered reviewing addons before but for this one in particular I just had to.
I've screwed around with a handful of addons for organizing and navigating my tabs. I've tried variations of Session Manager, Tab Groups, OneTab, Tree Style Tab and. Non of them come close to the simple and utilitarian functionality that this plugin provides.
I am ecstatic to have discovered this and hope that development continues. I believe this is a severely underrated addon and I could see this sort of functionality becoming an out of the box staple for web browsers in the coming years.
Much love to the developer <3 - Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 16330782, 3 years ago
