- Rated 4 out of 5by helkav, 3 years agothis would be 5 if groups could be synced between devices along with your firefox login. otherwise it's really handy
- Rated 4 out of 5by Alex, 3 years agoThis is a great extension and I use it constantly, both for tab grouping and tab backups (which come useful with Firefox rarely being 100% stable for me). I have some comments about backup mechanism though:
- (quite major) I sometimes end up with a bunch of tabs not assigned to any group - and these don't get backed up! I have known about this for a while, but still it occasionally trips me up. It would be much better if the backup included "ungrouped" tabs as well, maybe in a new dummy group. This behaviour can be made optional if for whatever reason it's expected that someone might want to opt out.
- (minor) Backups don't save tab distribution between windows, so after crash I have to manually recreate windows and shuffle the tabs between them, but that's more of an inconvenience, as long as all tabs are restored.
And again, thank you very much! - Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 13564923, 3 years agoрасширение хорошее, но есть пара вещей, которые делают его совершенно бесполезным...
1. невозможно открыть один файл в сохраненной группе, но только всю группу (а если там 20 файлов? вот и приходится открывать всю группу целиком)... крайне неудобно...
2. невозможно ни синхронизировать, ни сохранить эти группы в архиве (что бы в случае переустановки браузера - восстановить вкладки, или синхронизировать с других браузером)...
... вот это и делает это расширение - совершенно бесполезным...
...................
upd как по волшебству на следующее утро после написания претензий открылась (сама по себе) вкладка настроек, где есть опция бэкапа и восстановления всех групп, как видно Санта Клаус прочитал мою жалобу и помог... меняю ради него свою оценку, но вопрос по открытию единственной вкладки из всей группы остается... - Rated 4 out of 5by ClickyBlue, 3 years ago

- Rated 4 out of 5by rundsee, 3 years agoHi, I love that Addon so much ❤️ - my greatest wish is, that you decide to support the new Safari for the new "MacOS Big Sur" which support extensions like firefox. I will change from FF to Safari when I use MacOS Big Sur in autum. Thank you very much. 🙏🙏🙏
Here some details from Apple:

- like this I have many groups, but cannot devide the frequently used ones from the longterm stored ones.
Also it would be amazing if one could rename the containers and even set up more of them... - Rated 4 out of 5by Pierre, 3 years ago
- Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 14173973, 3 years agoQuite nice, easy to use. Occasionally everything disappears (the groups are there but the tabs are all "0"), so I just reload from last backup. I would love a way to spec the directory for backups, so I could backup to cloud automatically.
- Rated 4 out of 5by Duren, 3 years agoVery powerful add-on! There are a lot of settings!
But I can't change the parent folder for backup subfolder! How can I do it? It's very uncomfortable!Developer response
posted 3 years agoThanks! You can change the name of the folder in the addon settings. Subfolders are not supported by browser due to security - Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 14420446, 3 years ago
- Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 14026981, 3 years agoshout-cut key (e.g. alt + e) not work in https://komica.org/
- Rated 4 out of 5by Чувак, 3 years ago1. When i take "url" manage groups from adress bar (for example moz-extension://8e9a54bb-e738-413f-ae0e-f28052cf45da/manage/manage.html) and make this url my home page, and then use hotkey or gestures to start homepage - manage groups starting, but tabs in groups deleting after transitions to other groups. Its sad.
2. Tab "manage groups" not deleting if i run manage groups and select other tab in current group, i forced periodycaly delet this tab. And why tab "manage groups" visible in manage groups?
3. Window "manage groups" does not remember window position and size, and why i cant maximaze window?
That's all for now, tnx. - Rated 4 out of 5by Andres Palshal, 3 years ago
- Rated 4 out of 5by Tom, 3 years agoNot a huge deal but whenever I pin a tab so that I can see it in all groups it always seems to create a new group

Please contact me by email, or via github. - Rated 4 out of 5by Ban_Mido, 4 years agoA few versions ago I can't do a manual backup, when I click on the "Save" button it simply does absolutely nothing, automatic copies don't work either. The only way I have to save my groups is with the option to save in bookmarks, the truth is that I prefer to save it in a separate file because of what may happen, the profile could be deleted and I would lose everything if it is only there, I hope you can Fix this bug.
- Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 15698888, 4 years agoWorks well and has saved me many hassles keeping track of things. My only complaint is how it reloads all pages on launch, slowing things down.
Otherwise, a wonderful tool. Thanks for all your work.Developer response
posted 4 years agoHello! Thanks! Addon can not do this, except that a very old version. Perhaps you do not have session recovery enabled (in your browser settings)?
Please write here and I will try to help you.
https://github.com/Drive4ik/simple-tab-groups/issues/ - Rated 4 out of 5by gamover, 4 years agoКнопка TabGroup стала показывать по умолчанию не список групп а список вкладок в группе. Это очень не удобно. Почему-то стали дублироваться все вкладки в группе при ее открытии. Раньше все работало отлично.
Стоит последняя версия: 4.4.2.4 (по крайней мере обновлений не находит), но проблема с отображением вкладок вместо групп присутствует все равно.
Кто нибудь знает как отвечать на комменты здесь? Какая-то кастрированная система комментирования.Developer response
posted 4 years agoПожалуйста, обновите аддон до последней версии, эти ошибки были исправлены. - Rated 4 out of 5by furiousgeorge984, 4 years agoReally useful and helpful extension that generally works quite well. The two things on my wishlist for it would be (1) some way of having it be able to run without making Firefox restore all my tabs when I open it; (2) syncing my tab groups across different devices (my home + work computer).

posted 4 years agoPlease update the addon to the latest version. I added the archiving functionality of the desired group. If you archive large groups, the browser will start faster. - Rated 4 out of 5by uno, 4 years ago
- Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 13583452, 4 years agoCe module est pratique, il permet de classer ses onglets par groupe. Il manque cependant la possibilité de regrouper côte à côte le même type d'onglet dans le groupe.
Lorsque l'on crée un nouvel onglet, celui-ci se place à droite de l'onglet ouvert, mais tous les onglets défilent jusqu'au dernier dans la barre des onglets, il serait bien que l'onglet s'ouvre, s'en aller à la fin de tous les onglets.
Un autre bug existe c'est qu'en basculant vers un autre groupe, si l'on ferme un onglet (disons le premier qui s'affiche dans le groupe), le groupe bascule vers celui que l'on vient de quitter, il faut donc à nouveau changer de groupe. - Rated 4 out of 5by Jason Warren, 4 years ago90% of the time, this add-on is an absolute lifesaver. The only issue is that there will be periodic moments where it all breaks down... My groups won't load, all the tabs from every group appear on my screen...
I suspect this is not the fault of the developer, but rather a side effect of updates in Firefox etc. - Rated 4 out of 5by loonania, 4 years ago
