Reviews & Comments of TabCloud chrome extension

Deleted a whole set of important tabs - without me removing them and with no way to recover them.

Tracks every link that you open through it. AVOID

Is there a way to restore deleted tabs? I was organizing my tabs just now and discovered that Tabcloud has now deleted several long term tabs in which I had saved

It was working perfectly until one day it stopped loading my saves. here is the message in the inspector from the explorer. jquery-1.4.2.min.js:35 Refused to execute inline script because it violates the following Content Security Policy directive: "script-src 'self' https://api.viglink.com https://ssl.google-analytics.com". Either the 'unsafe-inline' keyword, a hash ('sha256-+J8YzBRdBQhkH6gx4bgSbJP/tUa6KutwDIovC/adHuM='), or a nonce ('nonce-...') is required to enable inline execution.

Just started using it, but it's pretty good so far--does exactly what it says. It's especially useful where you might be inhibited from syncing Chrome settings (my agency has locked this down), in that it has its own Google login. I'm now happily sharing sessions between home and office.

I have had many instances when I had to close down my computer and was not finished with the tabs that were open. Or I needed to close them for other reasons. This app came in handy. The only downfall is I have all my tabs in groups on chrome. When you back and restore it restores them all individually instead in the groups I created. That would be great if that can be fixed or added as a function.

It was my go to for saving tabs, then I discovered it is redirecting to your saved tabs through a nefarious site. Switched to another extension for this functionality and removed TabCloud because of it's lack of privay.

I've been using it for years and really like it, however it's now got very slow probably due to a large number of saved tab collections. Is there a way to bulk delete all the saved tabs? I think that's what's slowing it down but I don't see a way to do that.

It wasn't working today, but I reached out to the developer and he fixed it. It's back to being awesome again!

Hasn't been updated since 2014 and now it's stuck on "Loading..." forever. Guess I lost all my tabs..

Error: Server Error The server encountered an error and could not complete your request. Please try again in 30 seconds.

Developer doesn't respond to Support concerns. They "silently" redirect all saved URLs through redirect.viglink.com. Non-public (hostname) URLs get butchered.

haven't yet tried on two devices but so far works amazingly and was exactly what I was looking for, and is free! I love the internet!

This is great, not a hassle just quick set to your pinned extensions and save different windows across all desktops

Best way for me to save tabs I want to find easily later on

Wish it supported keeping tab grouping now that they are in chrome, otherwise its perfect

I generally have 100+ tabs open at once across multiple windows so this is extension is useful except 1. it gets super laggy on saving or pulling up, 2. wish there was an option to delete multiple groupings at once, and 3. it logs me out too frequently.

Saved Links redirects thru viglink.com. Be careful which urls you saved with.

Has worked well enough for me, for many years now. Across operating systems and versions i.e. from Chrome on Windows 7 on desktops and laptops to even Chrome on Linux and Chrome on Windows in a virtualbox machine. Of course, I use redundant tabsavers so I'm not dependant on just this one in case it fails, like it did today. Which is what prompted me to write this review. It never saves my SSO login across sessions. And I don't mind logging in whenever I have a session to save. But today instead of the familiar list of my saved sessions, it's throwing up a Chrome warning about a phishing site hijack -- knapsack.com -- after I logged in. I have numerous Google accounts which I use in numerous Chrome profiles each having their own tab sessions. So I'm gonna test in those other ones too. Either this may be a known issue which will get resolved by and by. Or I hope to draw the Chrome Web Store moderators' attention. Because an extension with a hijacked SSO is a severe security vulnerability.

purely just excellent.

This let's you down when you need it most. For some reason it logs out whenever it feels like and doesn't give any indication of it so things I thought were available weren't. Uninstalling.

Needs only one thing as far as I can see, but still a five. If it had the ability to keep the open windows/tabs at the top in view while scrolling the saved backup tabs. Very simple and easy to use addon, life has been great with this in my toolbar. :)

TabCloud stopped working for me. When I try to open the list of saved tabs, it displays the "Loading ..." and nothing else. I tried to re-login, remove and install the addon. Doesn't work. Please, fix this. I want to use this extension. I would like to change my  evaluation to 5 stars.

Very much love the extension, just wish I was able to update tab groups instead of having to resave them, rename and delete the old group..

not working .

Does not work, saved all my tabs and now they won't open.

I loved this extension, now it throws everything through the viglink.com malware redirects. BOO. I get that you need to make money, but seriously, this is terrible.

Simple and concise. Works Great to load all of my stock websites and many windows / Sites.

I have many many many saved tabs...it's time for a spring clean. I wish I was not bounced to the top of the list of tabs every time I deleted one of them.

Works great! Now I can easily access my tabs open in Kiwi browser on my Android phone, and open those tabs (or a whole session) in Chrome browser on my Windows PC. And vice versa.

Have been using it for over 3 years now. Works great!! Simple and easy to use.

A simple and useful extension. However, I'd have liked to have auto session naming based on the currently open tab in addition to an option to display saved tabs as a textual list.

Amazing extension. Does what it's supposed to do. Has very simple and intuitive user interface. It has been really helpful for me on aiding in my workflow. Keep up the good work.

An update would be nice. I've been losing some tabs recently, it's a loss of time... And they can't be recovered. A bugfix would be awesome !

What is going with this viglink redirects? I can't use the extension any more

I renamed two saved sections, and it overwrote the second section with the first, losing my data. Unexcusable.

conorhd you idiot this is garbage. sessionbuddy is slighty better, they dont have cloud storage

Sadly, as used this extension so many years, extension started to behave hostily on your privacy - DO NOT INSTALL THIS EXTENSION! Extension has started using middle man AD tracking service to compromise one's privacy. Sad, this extension was so good for so many years.

Used to love this extension. But the viglink redirects are too much invasive for my privacy. Goodbye TabCloud. It was nice while it lasted.

I used to loooove this extension, but since they added viglink.com as a redirect to all tabs when opened automatically, and not giving you the option to disable this, I'll be moving to a different solution, more modern and with financial stability instead of very tacky ways of trying to generate more revenue.

Works for the most part. Often requires that I sign in again, which is a pain. This morning when I restored a saved set of tabs, all of those tabs were passed through a third party advertising/tracking system, and my adblocker stopped all of them. I'm uninstalling this.

Simply doesn't work anymore. It was a very useful extension once upon a time, but the time it takes to load the list of saved tabs just got longer and longer over the years until the menu just stopped coming up. I can leave the thing loading for twenty minutes and not have it get anywhere, and reinstalling TabCloud and even google chrome didn't work. Maybe this could be prevented by deleting old tabs more often but there was no warning of that and I have literally no way of even trying anymore so it is only a theory.

Super useful for me to manage sessions eg working with multiple groups using Chrome

Been using this extension for more than half a decade! It just works; its UI is simple and intuitive. I've tried the other newer extensions out there many times but always come back to this one. I'm a bit concerned about it however; it's not been updated since 2014, but it continues to work so I'm still happy with it. :)

Simple does not work. Great idea but it just doesn't work. I'll just export into Session Buddy. Bummer.

for some reason, it stopped working for me, no syncing between devices, no saving of tabs even in the same device... Frustrating

It's been working great, I liked saving tab sessions devoted to one task and then opening it later when I'm ready to finish the task. The last week I've saved two sessions, and I go to restore them, and the sessions are gone. It's a real shame that I can't rely on this extension anymore, because it was simple and worked well. Would've been nice if it had an autosave feature too.

Great extension, love it. one comment, the plus sign when opening the tabs is a bit misleading - thought it was to add the window!! A different icon would be awsome. Great work - loooooooooooooooooooooooooove it

Wow! The Easiest way to save a series of websites that you will need to revisit later. I like it WAY better than Pocket!!!!!!!!!!!

SAVED ME MANY TIMES AND HAPPY IT EXISTS, VERY SMART, ALWAYS WORKED FOR ME! Another reason I switched to Chrome.

I like it but recently I've been getting a URL:Phising warning from my anti-virus each time I use it. The error is the following: "We've blocked the threat URL:Phishing on https://pic.alipayobjects.com/i/ecmng/ico/201410/3hzZKmx4An.ioc" from being downloaded. Anyone know what's going on?

That's what I always wanted. Cloud is the best and there's no other extension that gives cl;oud support with this functionality.

Bestest extension ever, its an essential requirement, not just a simple addon

I thought Session Buddy synced between computers, apparently it does not. Found TabCloud, installed it, and it worked. Seems pretty intuitive and simple to use.

Was good but useless now. Not worked for a year or so for me.

Only worked about 50% of the time for me in the past, and now it doesn't work at all... When I click on the 'save' button in the TabCloud window, it pretends to save the items (and removes the 'save' button, which implies there are no more changes to save), but doesn't actually save the tabs. No error displayed, gives the user a false sense of security that the information is saved, but when you go to restore at another time, you find that it never saved the session in the first place. I just don't get why this is so hard...

Tried many, this one has the features and simplicity i need for my browsing to flow. I'm a heavy tab user! And TabCloud allows me to categorise them, move them around and manage them easily. Very useful H I N T ! : You can always select multiple tabs in Chrome/Brave by holding shift or ctrl / cmd (for not selecting the ones in between) and clicking them. Then you can drag them out to a new window or an existing one. Useful because a window = a TabCloud session. Tab sessions become timelines of my browsing, no need to ever delete anything that i might get back to some day. At least so far I've experienced very low resource demand. And I don't think any personal data is collected. One feature that could be useful if added is ability to see sessions from other devices on same account. But that doesn't change the fact that TabCloud is really useful as it is.

This extension fails every time. I save my open tabs then a day later they are gone. It's been happening for months now. This extension is worthless. Please fix!

Stands out from other tab management extensions because it can sync between computers.

Outstanding tool. Easy to use.

Simple but great idea! What about auto-saving the current tab group upon each tab addition/removal?

This extension has completely removed my need for bookmarks! It's like freezing a busy desk in place and putting it away in a drawer. This allows you to be interrupted at any moment without losing your flow. Invaluable for parents for people in open office plans.

I really like TabCloud, it helps a TON! I would like to request folders be added, it would help me a whole lot!

It used to work for me 100% and I loved it, but for the past half year at least it just has not been syncing or saving. I will click save (it saves) but wont sync between computers, OR after I close my browser and re-open the list I saved is no longer saved........ Tested Chrome and Chrome Beta Win10

This extension is great! It does exactly what it needs to do and I've been using it for years. Really helpful.

Great extension - helps me all the time! I didn't give it 5 stars because I want ONE MORE FEATURE: I would like have the ability to give my browser a link to automatically open up to one of my "tabs" - thus opening all the pages at once.

This is what I need, can you fix the android link please?

Hi, thanks for this great extension. Great idea and great coding. I have one feature request though. It would be great to allow users to switch accounts right when we click on the icon. It would be very convenient and seamless to work with different accounts and we wont have to worry about which account we are saving the tabs to. Anyways, Thank you!

I do a lot of presentations where I need to open a bunch of tabs that I have saved. This tool works great for doing that...as long as I remember to save! I heard about tabcloud a while back at FETC, tried it then forgot about it. Heard about it again at TCEA this year, tried it again and found a new purpose for it. Now it is my favorite new tool! If you are sharing tabcloud, don't let it get lost in the presentation with other information.

provides me with great organization and ability to open groups of tabs over the 2 screen setup

It does what it says, but it's not reliable. If you have a large save full of items, it doesn't open all of them, there is a limit. If you have a bunch of stuff saved, it takes longer and longer to load the more you go. You cannot export a bookmarks bar. It is not as simple or convenient as using Chrome's initial bookmarking system. It closes and forces you to reload the entire list any time you click off of it. It is strict to Google Chrome, no other browser. It is plain and simple a pain to deal with. Do not get it.

Works well but I wish I didn't have to log in so often

why do i need to log in every time. It should keep the login details. I am switching to session buddy thanks

Great Tool... Saves me when I have to save the many tabs I opened and have to restart my laptop for whatever reason.

Doesn't work on Chrome Beta. Keeps asking TabCloud requires you to login, even after logging in.

perfect so far

Everything works great. Just one thing I miss - there is no quick way of replacing a group with the current window. If I open a group, notice that some tabs are outdated, added a few more tabs, the only way I can update the saved group is by dragging tab icons one-by-one from current to saved

not working anymore

Just press Ctrl+click on green plus to open all, thanks Jona Lawrence!

Works great. Syncs in literal seconds. Makes switching between computers is easy. I wouldn't use this as a replacement for bookmarks though.

Works great, was exactly what I was looking for, one simple click and all tabs are easily restored.

Great extension for effective browsing. Hope they had the deleted tabs in their recycle bin

I've used this simple extension for years and it has worked beautifully. After some weeks of inactivity, it will prompt to re-login. But that is minor issue. I have not tested between multiple devices so can not comment on that functionality. On my MAC air, tabs save fine and can be recalled months later. Very useful for workflow.

Will waste your time, then all tabs are gone/vanished (after I logged in using google credentials)... Good thing that I had my tabs bookmarked before I use this piece of #$%^

Need a way to sync unsaved tab groups back to the "linked" saved tab group.

OMG I've been banging my head up against SessionBuddy, et al, and finally found TabCloud, which does everything I intuitively expect a chrome session management plugin to do! Good work!

This is an essential tool for me! It has a few quirks but it works quite well. I use it all the time. I save tab sets for each project I am working on with the date. As the project changes I delete the old one and create a new one. (Would be a great added feature to be able to update the same saved set, but this workaround is fine.) It moves with my Chrome login so I can access it on any other platform where I'm logged in on Chrome which is awesome! Really glad to have this! Lon

я бы поставила 0 звезд. последние 2 месяца сохраняла вкладки, и после очередного обновления винды - все, начинаем жизнь с чистого листа. але, расширение, где моя история?

It just works!

I don't know how long it has been in service, but this is a very useful extension, I as a researcher would like to save sessions and get back to them anytime I want. Very good job!

Damm this save my life!

Great ...getting the same tabs across devices..

Really nice app. But please! For the Android version, allow opening an entire session at once. Quite time consuming to manually re-open 20-50 tabs.

despite it's last update being 3.5 years ago, this extension is perfect for my needs. so grateful for its existence- all functions remain compatible on my systems running windows 10 creators update+ thank you

EXACTLY what I was looking for. Thank you!

Very useful especially across browser instances

Much better than some dusty old way of saving bookmarks! Been using it on and off for over five years whenever I need to remember to come back to bunch of useful tabs I want to close now.

Just got a new work laptop and I have 50 tabs open on the old laptop. My company blocks Chrome syncing. This allowed me to transfer all of the tabs over to the new computer without having to do it manually. It also allows me to now see across my other devices as well (tablet, phone, etc).

Quite possibly the greatest extension out there. This extension has revolutionized, streamlined and maximized my workflow. I can't work without it.

Very useful for anyone who uses alot of tabs. Also very useful because new browser windows can be opened to a specific set of tabs. I use this to save a bunch of related tab, e.g., stock market commentary sites, job sites, buying sites, etc. Easily saves me the trouble of keeping multiple browsers or tabs open.

With an "autosave" feature (say every few minutes, or when a tab is added or modified) it would have worked out great for me.

I wish it had a share feature so I could send a tab group to someone. Also if it was more intuitive. If I open a tab group and then make changes, it'd be nice if it automatically saved the changes.

Has stopped working completely, login thoroughly broken. Literally no point in using anymore.
