Latest version
Version 2.1
Released Nov 11, 2026 - 275.55 KBWorks with firefox 109.0a1 and later- Available in 47 languages.
- New "Unsuspend All Tabs" action: in the popup, in the right-click menu of any page and of the toolbar icon, and as a keyboard shortcut.
- Suspended tabs now survive extension updates and browser restarts without being reloaded or losing their titles.
- Tabs with unsaved work (for example online code editors that ask "Leave page?") are no longer suspended, and you are no longer interrupted by that prompt.
- Screenshots on the suspended page are more reliable and always show the right tab.
- Fixed: cancelling a pause and re-enabling the extension now resume suspension correctly.
- Fixed: duplicate tabs after an update in browsers that replace tabs when discarding them (e.g. Vivaldi).
