Concepts
- Group Mirror Mode and native groupsWork directly with native Chrome groups, including editing, selection, collapse behavior, and the Tab Groups Sync boundary.
- Automatic grouping and Tab Groups Sync (BETA)Understand category assignment, custom groups, optional native Chrome Tab Groups Sync (BETA) on this profile, and its overwrite boundary.
- Tab RulesCreate, order, test, quick-add, import, and export rules that assign tabs to groups.
- Context ProfilesKeep rule contexts separate, switch and manage profiles, and cycle them with the Mac-first shortcut.
- Views and what they showSwitch between Groups, Windows View, Statistics, Recommendations, and Duplicates using quick stats and toolbar controls.
Guides
- Search and keyboard shortcutsFind tabs across the displayed windows, move through results, and configure Tab Organizer keyboard commands.
- Customize the toolbarUse the six-slot quick-access row, the More tools panel, and drag-and-drop to pin the actions you need.
- Create and manage custom groupsAdd custom groups, assign tabs, choose colors or gradients, and maintain group names in Tab Organizer.
- Group names, domains, and packsRename canonical group labels, assign extra domains, hide groups, and import a signed community pack from a local file.
- Split oversized groupsEnable the giant-group splitter, set a tab threshold, and choose whether oversized synced groups split by domain or title prefix.
- Work across multiple windowsFilter tabs by Chrome window, move individual tabs, and merge other windows into the current window.
- Save and manage sessionsCapture tabs, groups, windows, and display geometry in a Tab Organizer session file.
- Restore a sessionReplace current tabs with a saved single- or multi-window session while preserving a recovery path.
- Run a recovery drillRehearse the export and restore loop once, so recovering sessions, rules, and groups from a backup follows steps you already know.
- Recovery snapshots and undoUnderstand when Tab Organizer saves a local recovery snapshot before a state-replacing action, and how Undo restores that snapshot.
- Clean up duplicate tabsReview duplicate candidates, choose copies explicitly, and confirm only the tabs you intend to close.
- Review rarely visited tabsUse local visit history to review recommendations, adjust the selection, and confirm any tab closures.
- Sleep and wake tabsFree memory by putting eligible tabs to sleep with the Zzz control, then reload them when you need them again.
- Close tabs in bulkDefine a clear scope, review each selected tab, and confirm a controlled bulk close from Deletion Mode.
- Configure Auto-CollapseKeep the active native tab group open while Tab Organizer collapses other groups during sync.
Reference
- Session filesUnderstand the contents, compatibility, export, import, and website boundary of Tab Organizer session files.
- Extension permissionsMap each Chrome permission in Tab Organizer to its task, processed data, and storage or data-flow boundary.
- Website and extension data flowsSeparate website requests, in-browser extension processing, optional Chrome Sync, and session files.
- Light and dark themesChoose the extension theme, understand the system-color fallback, and keep dense tab lists readable.
