- Rated 3 out of 5by Gordon Dry, 3 months agoI wonder why it strictly saves the backups to the download folder without the possibility to define another folder.
I don't want to have forced subfolders with more subfolders in my downloads folder. - Rated 3 out of 5by Anonymous, 5 months agoIt's extremely annoying, that clicking a saved link, keeps the addon popup open until I manually click outside.
- Rated 3 out of 5by Moamar, 6 months agoThis is a good addon, but there are two missing things which are the following:
The first thing:
the history of any tab in a saved session is not stored, so after opening a saved session and loading a tab I can not go backwards to the previous addresses that I visited before saving the session and closing the window of Firefox
this behaviour is not like what was in the great addon
Session Manager by Michael Kraft that was in before Firefox change to web extension addons
I mean the addon Session Manager by Michael Kraft that Sienori was inspired by, as he mentioned in section of About this extension
---------
The second thing:
Also the saved sessions do not save or keep the hierarchy that was created by addon of Tree Style Tab by Piro (piro_or)
I hope Sienori update Tab Session Manager with these two features - Rated 3 out of 5by Firefox user 17848627, 7 months agoOn some devices and browsers is Google login (sync) not working.
- Rated 3 out of 5by Firefox user 17715178, 10 months agoSince Firefox removed the Session Manager I tried this extension as a replacement. It was nice to have a way to manage sessions but the memory usage is terrible. When I turned off this extension I went from using over 2GB of memory to 500 MB. This was despite limiting how many sessions to save so that it wouldn't consume too much memory. It's not great using Firefox and having it lag after keeping it open for a few days while using this extension.
- Rated 3 out of 5by Teagan, a year agoOne of 'my' must have Add-Ons that I have been using for a while now, maybe even a little too much.
However, the biggest DOWNSIDE of his Add-On, is the ridiculous amount of memory it eats up, which really at this point is just not acceptable, seeing as it's been around since 2019. 👎
The second problem is the lack of updates. As of this moment (June 2023), it's "last updated was 9 months ago (Sep 15, 2022)" and that's just not acceptable also. 👎 - Rated 3 out of 5by timur g, a year agoJust 3* as only all tabs can be saved - should be able to save just SELECTED tabs. And many comments that import doesn't work, maybe because of diacritics or whatever.
- Rated 3 out of 5by they86, 2 years agoHas the potential to be(come) great, but for now not useful - for me.
You cannot drag closed tabs to different window.
You cannot drag windows to a different session.
Sessions can't be organized in folders.
Tags for sessions are useful, as you can filter them. This is nice.
Auto-track change option is also a good idea, but it has to be activated for each session individually - it seems.
For now it seems a good extension for people who want session syncing for sessions containing multiple windows.
People who want to sync WINDOWS (1 window = 1 subject) will find this extension less useful. - Rated 3 out of 5by Firefox user 17458784, 2 years ago
- Rated 3 out of 5by e scoles, 2 years agoThis is only good for interacting with closed sessions - it's not useful for interacting with your current session. E.g. if you keep a large number of windows & tabs open & need help navigating between them, this won't help: Clicking on a tab or a window will open a NEW INSTANCE of that tab or window (which is absolutely not the default behavior I'd look for).
The feature to sync sessions looks like it could potentially be useful - it improves on the current open-tabs sync functionality by giving access to archived sessions. (Which I suppose is the one area where it's useful, but it's not remotely a common use-case for me.) - Rated 3 out of 5by Terry, 2 years agoI noticed that it does not save the history of the tab. i.e., forward-backward transitions in one tab. This is also important. not only restore windows and tabs, but also the history of tabs, position in front to back. tab chronology. not just a tab with one page, but with a list of transitions. this is super important! do it?
- Rated 3 out of 5by Firefox user 16612369, 2 years agoI would give higher but to me only having Google cloud as the only cloud backup solution is not a good option as We All Know what Google will do with your data
- Rated 3 out of 5by netscape0.99, 2 years agoWhy on earth does this addon suddenly need to know my google email when I sync to GDrive? I find that quite suspicious and unnecessary? It worked fine before without those permissions. I really, really liked this addon. But now, not so much
- Rated 3 out of 5by Dark with Green Highlights, 2 years agoGreat extension.
I'd give it 5 stars if only it has RENAME capability on the Session & Link names, as well as DRAG 'N DROP capability of those sessions and links . Please refer to a Firefox extension named 'Session Sync' for reference. - Rated 3 out of 5by Firefox user 12461995, 2 years agoI get some problem , when i Enable Synchronize Function to google drive , i didn't see any .json file in there , where they go ?

- Rated 3 out of 5by Cool Franz, 3 years agoGenerally satisfied, but last update deleted all my saved sessions...
- Rated 3 out of 5by laggaedkernel, 3 years ago
- Rated 3 out of 5by Jj, 4 years agoIt does what it says, and I like having this long history of my sessions that I can go back. Makes me feel safe about accidental closing windows or crashes.
There is one huge caveat that makes it pretty much unusable for me, is that restoring session will loose the container tabs and will reopen everything in the default container which is a no go for me :( - Rated 3 out of 5by Firefox user 15294105, 5 years ago
