- Rated 4 out of 5by irvnriir, 4 jaar geledeIt has some issues yet, but has more features and already/{probably will be} more ergonomic than OneTab .

- Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 15163168, 5 jaar geledeI just wish I could change keybinds or turn them off so I never accidentally hit them

There should be an entry "Manage extension shortcuts". Hope this helps ;) - Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 14183139, 5 jaar geledeThis is a lifesaving extension -- it's transformed my approach to browsing. It's a little rough around the edges but generally very functional. An additional feature that would make a huge difference would be to have the ability to sort sessions you've set aside, either manually or automatically.

posted 4 jaar geledeThanks for the review! Although you can not do it through the extensions UI you can sort sessions (and the tabs within) using the browsers bookmark manager (Ctrl+Shift+B). I want to implement session reordering using drag-n-drop in the sidebar at some point though. - Rated 4 out of 5by gprst, 5 jaar gelede
- Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 14302719, 6 jaar geledeIts a fantastic and very useful add on. Something I was just looking for to put tabs in a side for future usage. I have a question about how can I add any tab in my previously stored session?
Example: I have stored 3 tabs in a session today. If tomorrow I have another 2 tabs related to same topic which I want to add in that previous session then how can I do that?
Currently, I have ended up with 2 different sessions of the tabs for the same topic.
Please help about it.Developer response
posted 6 jaar geledeThanks for your review. You can add single tabs using the tab context menu: right lick on the tab in the tab bar and choose "Tabs Aside" -> "add to existing session". If you want to merge to sessions, you will have to do it manually via Firefoxs bookmark manager, at least at the moment. At some point you will probably be able to do that from the sidebar but the currently the development focus is on other things. - Rated 4 out of 5by Graham Beard, 6 jaar gelede
- Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 13700961, 6 jaar geledeIt´s great but I would like to be able to disable the "session actualization" feature so I can browse the tabs that I need from a session and close the ones that aren't useful at the moment without actually discarding them from the session.

posted 6 jaar geledeThanks for the review. I am currently working on v3 which also brings support for partially activated sessions, that means you can open the tabs just by clicking on them in the sidebar. Unfortunately this will still take some time until release. - Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 14082595, 6 jaar geledeOne suggestion: 3-digit numbering - I just set aside a couple of hundred tabs (research delve) and the numbering loops at 99
Developer response
posted 6 jaar geledeThe numbering actually goes on, I suppose it is just not visible. I will fix that, thanks for bringing that up :) - Rated 4 out of 5by Laurel Raven, 7 jaar geledeWhat I was looking for is something that mimics the Edge tab set aside feature. This comes really close, but the one thing that keeps it from really shining in my opinion is the ability to open individual tabs that have been set aside. Otherwise, this is a really good start; thanks for making it!
Update 2017-12-20 for 1.13: Added a star (up to 4 now) for the ability to open individual tabs that have been set aside. I'll update to 5 stars if you allow for removing individual tabs from a set-aside group as well (so that if I have several tabs but want to set them aside and deal with them one-by-one that'll be easier), and as a nice-to-have, it would be great to be able to have an option to open and remove from the group at the same time (and maybe an option to make that the default behavior). It's coming along nicely, though, and with this update I can make it a bigger part of my workflow. Thanks!Developer response
posted 7 jaar geledeUpdate: I just submitted v1.13. You are now able to open individual tabs from the sidebar. Please consider updating your review :)

Thanks for the review. I agree that there should be a way to do that. This will be in the next update ;) - Rated 4 out of 5by Laura Seabrook, 7 jaar geledeDoes what it says. There is however room for improvement. My suggestions:
A toggle which sets whether or not put aside bookmarks get closed. Sometimes you might want to save different sets of tabs with one or more of the same tab in each.
A second toggle on whether or not set aside bookmarks are deleted from the bookmarks when restored.
The ability to set the root location of the set aside bookmark folder. This would point to the folder above it to use (currently "Other Bookmarks"). One advantage of that is that you could point this is a folder on the Bookmarks toolbar.
Maybe the ability to rename the the sub-folder the set aside folders are saved to. Currently this is the name of the active tab. Maybe what would happen is that (like the old Tab Mix Plus) you'd get a popup with a text field defaulting to that, which you could edit, before saving or cancelling.
Just some ideas. Keep up the good work.Developer response
posted 7 jaar geledeThanks for your review & suggestions.
Since v1.13 the restore behavior can be set in the addon options.
Also CTRL + click toggles the behavior.
As of v1.8 there is a button in the browser action menu to just save the tabs.
v1.16 brings the ability to select any bookmark folder as the Tabs Aside folder.
I am not quite sure what you mean by your last point, feel free to elaborate here:
