Tab Shelf - Side panel vertical tabs

Vertical tab management from your side panel with support for tab groups, multiple windows, and much more.

Tab Shelf is a minimal, yet versatile, vertical tab manager for Chrome. 🤔 WHY VERTICAL TABS? Whether you're frantically doing research for a paper, queuing up articles to read, or you just love hoarding tabs, tab management can be a pain. Having all your tabs squeezed at the top of your window makes it hard to remember what tabs you have and to quickly navigate between them. Being able to persistently view all your tabs in a convenient, colorful, and customizable vertical view takes that headache away! ⭐️ FEATURES - View and manage your tabs conveniently from the side panel. - Use rules to automatically group tabs from specific websites. - Choose from amongst 20 colors to differentiate your tab groups. - Quickly search or filter your tabs by group, window, or whether they've got audio playing. - Sleep your tabs to save memory and energy. - Sync your settings and grouping rules via your Google account across your other computers. - Light and dark themes to match your browser, plus 20 accent colors to give your Tab Shelf some flair. 🌏 TRANSLATIONS Tab Shelf is available in 17 languages. 🔐 PRIVACY POLICY Please read Tab Shelf's privacy policy (which can be found at: https://www.tabshelf.com/privacy-policy) to understand how Tab Shelf prioritizes responsible permissions usage and user privacy.

Duplicate tabs will not be automatically closed, but a button will appear in the top toolbar to allow you to quickly filter your tab list to only show duplicate tabs. This lets you manually review your duplicate tabs before closing them (some web apps may display different content or have a different context per tab, but may have the same URL). - Added tab context menu sub-menus: - Sub-menu to sleep tabs below or above the selected tab, or all other tabs. - Moved tab closing options under a sub-menu. Options to close all tabs above or below the selected tab have also been added. - Quick-select a group (in the current window) to move a tab to. - Added a tab context menu option to force a tab to stay awake (block auto-sleep). CHANGES - Overhauled tab filter menu with updated filtering options. - Grouping rules can now be collapsed/folded in the grouping rules menu. - A crescent moon indicator icon is now shown next to a tab group name if all tabs under it are sleeping/inactive. - Tab group colors are now shown in the tab grouping menu. - Allow the localhost domain to be added to grouping rules. BUG FIXES - Removed an outdated warning about Saved Tab Groups not being supported. - Fixed an issue where newly added sites in rules were not appearing.
