TabTub

Effortlessly manage your browser tabs with TabTub – a simple yet powerful Chrome extension designed to help you organize and revisit important links with ease.

🚀 Features

  • Quick Tab Capture: Instantly save your current active tab or all open tabs to your personal "tub."
  • Intuitive Management: Easily remove individual tabs or clear your entire tub with a single click.
  • Cross-Device Sync: Your saved tabs automatically sync across all Chrome browsers where you're signed in, thanks to chrome.storage.sync.
  • Visual Tub: A clear visual representation of your saved tabs, making organization straightforward.
  • Duplicates Prevention: Avoid clutter; the "Tub 'em All" feature intelligently prevents adding tabs that are already in your tub.

💡 Usage

TabTub provides a streamlined way to keep your browsing organized:

  • Tub It: Click this button to save the tab you are currently viewing into your tub.
  • Tub 'em All: Save all tabs from your current browser window into the tub. Duplicate URLs are automatically ignored.
  • Empty Tub: Clear all saved tabs from your tub. A confirmation prompt ensures you don't accidentally delete your collection.
  • Remove Individual Tab (X): Each tab in the tub has a small 'X' button to remove it individually.
