Description

Boost browser performance & increase productivity with Tab Samurai. Ditch the other tab suspension & tab management extensions - this is the only one you'll ever need! OVERVIEW: 1. Automatic hibernation of inactive tabs. Save up to 80% of memory, reduce load on your device, battery and heat. 2. Smart tab management. Quickly find open tabs, see all windows in one view, find duplicates, and more. 3. Intuitive tab recovery. Easily restore closed tabs in one click. 4. Keyboard shortcut to quickly open Tab Samurai. -- TAB HIBERNATION: 1. Choose how long tabs should go un-viewed before hibernating. 2. Curate a list of domains to never hibernate. 3. Optionally choose to hibernate pinned tabs. Hibernating tabs still appear in your browser's top bar, and have the benefit of not using any memory or CPU (reducing lag and slow tab loading times). Samurai knows which tabs are active, playing audio/video, pinned, or fall under your domain whitelist. These tabs won't be hibernated. -- TAB MANAGEMENT: 1. Search bar to find a tab with a query. 2. Tab list grouped by domain, or by window. 3. Tabs recording video (webcam) or audio appear at the top of the list. 4. Manually hibernate tabs. 5. Close an individual tab, or mass-close tabs under a certain domain. 6. Mute an individual tab, or mass-mute all tabs in a window. 7. Pin an individual tab, or mass-pin all tabs under a certain domain. 8. Move all tabs under a certain domain to a new window. Samurai's tab management is the tool for the job whether you're: - Looking for specific tab in a sea of many. - Tracking down which tab is using your webcam. - Organizing tabs scattered across multiple windows. - Closing out no-longer-needed tabs. - Pinning your favorite tabs. - Finding & muting tabs that are playing audio. -- QUICK ACTIONS (with just a button click): 1. Close all duplicate tabs. 2. Hibernate all inactive tabs. 3. Mute all media playing tabs. 4. Close all unpinned tabs. -- TAB RECOVERY: 1. View recently closed tab & windows in a list. 2. See the date & time for when a tab or window was closed. 3. Recover a closed tab or window, or a specific tab in a closed window. Skip digging through your browsing history & re-open that closed tab in a flash with Samurai's tab recovery.
