Release notes

Product changes for Tab Organizer, newest first. Draft notes stay in the repository until they are approved for this page.

1.0.3

Tab Organizer 1.0.3

A small UX and reliability fix: clicking a tab navigates to it directly instead of opening multi-selection.

Fixed

  • Clicking a tab row in the Side Panel or popup now immediately switches to that tab in Chrome, without unexpectedly highlighting it or opening the selection action bar. Multi-selection is explicitly preserved using familiar desktop gestures: Ctrl/Cmd-click to toggle individual tabs, Shift-click for contiguous ranges, or when selection mode is turned on.

1.0.2

Tab Organizer 1.0.2

A small reliability fix: after Close other tabs, the toolbar popup stays open so you can Undo.

Fixed

  • Closing every tab except the active one from the toolbar popup now keeps the popup open and shows Undo, as the confirmation promised. A recovery snapshot is saved first, so you can bring every closed tab back. (Opening the app as a full window already did this; the toolbar popup did not.)

1.0.1

Tab Organizer 1.0.1

A small reliability fix: the toolbar icon always shows how many tabs you have open.

Fixed

  • The extension icon now always shows the tab count — including 0 and 1. The number stays in sync after Chrome restarts the extension in the background, so the badge should no longer go blank.

1.0.0

Tab Organizer 1.0.0

A major release since 0.4.8: live Group Mirror Mode, manual Sleep and Wake, three ways to open the app, plus a local rules and backup toolkit. Still no account.

Added

  • Group Mirror Mode (now the default): See and edit your real Chrome tab groups — live. Create, rename, reorder, move tabs, collapse, and dissolve. Same-named groups from every window read as one list. Removing a group only ungroups it; tabs stay open. Cannot run together with Tab Groups Sync.
  • Manual Sleep and Wake: Free memory on your command — one tab, a whole group, or everything with Zzz. No timers, no auto-suspend. The tab you are looking at stays awake.
  • Popup, Side Panel, or a dedicated window: Same UI, your choice. First-run asks once; change it any time in Settings. The Side Panel stays open while you browse.
  • Rules and workspaces: Tab Rules, Context Profiles, editable group names and extra domains, Giant-Group Splitter, and signed local community-pack import — all on this device.
  • Backups, Undo, and migration: JSON product backups, recovery snapshots with Undo before close-all or dissolve, and on-device import from Session Buddy, OneTab, or Toby. Configurable six-slot toolbar and a keyboard-shortcut overlay (?).

Changed

  • Frequency View is now Windows View. It groups tabs by browser window and shows local view counts and last-access times.
  • Tab Groups Sync is marked Beta. Automatic grouping is still available, but exclusive with Mirror. New installs start in Mirror.
  • Selection instead of deletion-only: mark tabs to Sleep, Wake, or Close in one step. Duplicate review and rarely-visited recommendations remain. Sessions still save multi-window layouts, now with native group names and Undo on destructive paths.
  • Opens faster, including when Mirror was already on. The in-app first-run is a host picker; the longer tour is on taborganizer.app/get-started.
