Session Saver

About

Session Saver lets you save your entire Chrome workspace — tab groups, tab order, and all — so you can come back to exactly where you left off.

Whether you juggle work, research, and personal browsing across dozens of tabs, or you just want to save a deep-research session before the weekend, Session Saver has you covered.

SAVE SESSIONS
Capture every open tab group in your window — names, colors, and structure included — along with any ungrouped tabs. Give your session a name and it's saved locally in under a second.

RESTORE SESSIONS
Bring back a saved session in a new window or add it to your current one. Tab groups are recreated with the correct names and colors, exactly as you left them.

SWITCH SESSIONS
One click to flip between contexts. Session Saver auto-saves your current tabs as "Previous Session (auto)" before switching, so you never lose work.

AUTO-SAVE
Set a timer and Session Saver quietly snapshots your workspace in the background. Up to 3 auto-saves are kept and older ones are pruned automatically.

DESIGNED FOR PEOPLE WHO ACTUALLY HAVE A LOT OF TABS
- Works seamlessly with Chrome's native tab groups
- Handles windows with 20+ tabs without breaking a sweat
- Clean, dark UI that fits right in with your workflow

PRIVACY-FIRST
All session data is stored locally using chrome.storage.local. Nothing is sent to any server. No accounts. No telemetry. Your browsing history never leaves your browser.
