If you’re a multitasker, you obviously have multiple tabs open at any given time so why not have OneTab on your Firefox make it easier for you?
One Tab allows you to convert your tabs into a list and restore them as and when needed. When you open too many tabs at once, some may get lost from the view and as the list grows and you may find yourself unintentionally closing some.
How do I use One Tab in Firefox?
You may have to restart your browser.
What are the main benefits of One Tab?
One Tab helps with consolidating all tabs that will not fit on your browser window. It then converts them to a list for easier management. Once in a list, you can quickly scroll through it and restore one or all when you need it.
The main reason for all this is to reduce the CPU and memory load on your browser and speed it up. You already know too many open tabs can slow down your browser so this is a much-welcome solution to faster load times andprevent your Firefox browser from becoming unresponsive.
When it comes to safety, you can rest assured that One Tab will not be collecting any information from your tabs to unauthorized parties. As a bonus, it also has a 4.2 rating which implies it’s a pretty solid choice.
The One Tab extension is also available on other browsers like Chrome. If you want an alternative to One Tab, try thesimple tab groups extension. However, if you just don’t like it, try outother Chrome tab management extensionsthat also work with Firefox.
If you’re against adding extensions to your browser, you don’t have to. There are lots ofbrowsers with tab management capabilitiesthat you can explore. Granted, they may not have the additional features that One Tab has, but they get the job done.
Speaking of tabs, you can alsointroduce tabs to Windowson your desktop for efficient time management.
