Too many tabs? Do you have a tab addiction? Tab Wrangler closes tabs that haven't been used recently. 

See how Tab Wrangler can free your Chrome from tab clutter in our walkthrough: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jtP7pysqHY8

 - Automatically closes idle tabs after designated time
 - Prevents auto-closing of your chosen sites
 - Saves closed tabs, keeps a list to easily re-open
 - Doesn't close pinned tabs or tabs playing sound

Auto-closed tabs are stored safe and sound in the Tab Corral. Tab Wrangler is highly configurable and will save your computer and your focus from tab overload.
