AutoTab - Tab Grouper, Tab Vault & Anti-Refresh Shield
Overview
Auto-groups tabs by domain, stashes tabs to Cloud Vault (OneTab+) with active text guard, and blocks forced page auto-refreshes.
🗂️ AutoTab v2.1: Zero-Click Tab Grouper, Cloud Tab Vault, Date Agenda & Anti-Refresh Shield Automatically organize your tabs by domain in real time, stash open tabs into a synced Vault (OneTab+) without losing unsaved text, browse your saved tabs by date, and stop websites from forcibly auto-reloading. 100% free and open source. Stop installing three separate bloated extensions to manage your tabs! AutoTab combines real-time background tab grouping, a synced Tab Vault, smart unsaved form protection, a date-based agenda, and a 4-layer Anti-Refresh & Scroll Lock shield in a single ultra-lightweight (<40 KB) package. ✨ What’s New in v2.1 ☁️ Optional - Google Drive Sync Your Vault syncs across computers by default through your browser profile. You can now also connect an optional Google Drive sync to store your Vault beyond browser sync limits. It works on Brave, Chrome, Edge, and Vivaldi. Drive sync is off by default and only requests access to files AutoTab creates. 💾 Clear Storage & Sync Status A status indicator shows whether your data is stored locally and in your browser profile, or synced to Google Drive, with the time of the last successful sync. 📅 Date Agenda & Calendar View Filter your saved tabs with quick chips (All, Today, Yesterday, Last 7 Days) or browse a monthly calendar that shows how many tabs you saved each day. Group actions such as “Open All” and “Delete Group” respect your active date and search filters, so you only affect what you see. 🪗 Accordion Mode Keep your workspace tidy: only the group containing your active tab stays expanded, while other groups in the window collapse automatically. ⏮️ Move-to-Front on Leave When you switch away from a tab, it moves to the first position in its group. When you come back, it’s easy to find again, and the other tabs don’t shift around while you work. 🛡️ Live Blocked-Refresh Counter The toolbar icon shows an amber badge with the number of auto-refresh attempts blocked on the current tab. The badge stays hidden when nothing has been blocked. ⚡ Core Features True Zero-Click Auto Grouping: Runs silently in the background and groups tabs by root domain as you browse. Smart 2+ Tab Rule & Instant Auto-Ungroup: Single tabs never get group headers. Groups are created only when 2 or more tabs share a site, and they dissolve automatically when only one tab remains. Cloud-Synced Tab Vault (OneTab+): Free up browser memory (RAM) with one click by saving and closing your open tabs into the Vault. Your stashed tabs sync across your computers through your browser profile, with optional Google Drive sync for larger libraries. Smart Active Tab Guard (<120ms): Never lose a draft message or interrupt a stream. When stashing tabs, AutoTab detects tabs with unsaved text (in inputs, textareas, or rich-text editors) or playing audio/video. It saves their links to the Vault as a backup but keeps those tabs open. 4-Layer Anti-Refresh & Scroll Lock Shield: Stops news sites and portals from auto-reloading pages to boost ad views, which would otherwise interrupt your reading and jump you back to the top. It blocks meta-refresh tags, focus traps, and background reload timers while locking your exact scroll position. Smart Domain Merge & Upsert Deduplication: Newly saved tabs merge into existing domain groups in your Vault instead of creating messy date-stamped lists. Saving a duplicate URL updates its timestamp and moves it to the top. Left-Click vs. Middle-Click Freedom: Left-click a Vault item to open it and remove it from the Vault. Middle-click or Ctrl+Click opens it in the background and keeps it in the Vault. Pinned Tab Immunity & Consistent Colors: Never touches your pinned tabs, and each domain always gets the same signature color (for example, YouTube is red, GitHub is purple, and Google is blue). Bilingual Interface (EN / TR) & JSON Backup: Full English and Turkish interfaces, four group sorting modes, instant search, and one-click JSON export and import. 🔒 Privacy First AutoTab processes everything locally in your browser. Your data is stored in your browser profile, and it leaves your device only if you enable optional Google Drive sync, which writes to your own Google Drive account. AutoTab has no analytics, no data collection, no developer servers, and no paywalls. 📂 Open Source Inspect the full source code or contribute on GitHub: https://github.com/SyK112/autotab
