Product summary

Tab Shelf is a feature-packed, 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!

By far the best extension on google chrome (besides maybe adblockers).

It would be great if it were possible to detach this manager into a separate window—for example, with the ability to move it to another area of the screen or even place it on a different monitor. As it stands, it takes up too much valuable screen space.

Almost perfect tab manager for me. Only gripe is the sleep function, works perfectly and saves a lot of pc performance but a few features would be great. Such as an auto sleep function, where it will automatically sleep tabs that have not been used in a configurable amount of time. Also when closing window and reopening it doesnt remember my slept tabs so all tabs are active. If these were added i would give 5 stars.

A must have extension. It improve drastically my productivity as Digital Project manager and developper. It would be very nice if Pined tabs would not update the icon or if we can set a customized icon eg to keep pined tab with the app icon. Eg. with Notion the icon is updated with the icon page instead of keeping Notion icon which is a bit confusing. BTW a great improvement would be to add in pined part aliases to applications (Docker, Terminal…) which will make Chrome like MAC dock. Thanks for this great job ;-)

Great tab manager, especially handy is that you can select multiple tabs from the sidebar to close, put to sleep, and many other options. Also works across different windows

So, so close to perfect. Please support easy creation of new tab groups - ideally, dragging and dropping a tab on top of another ungrouped tab would create a new tab group (similar to microsoft edge). Otherwise, a really well made extension!

Trying out several vertical tab managers -- selecting this one, mainly because it has good functionality to open a lot of tabs and forget about the native horizontal tabs across the top (which becomes basically useless when I have a lot of open tabs). Pin, reload, mute and duplicate are particularly important. One fairly simple request to make it even better for that purpose -- an optional "compact" mode: pinned tabs are twice as close together (that is, reduce the white space between icons); eliminate the second line for each tab (the URL); eliminate or reduce the blank line between tabs. Or maybe make those three suboptions. Also, I don't quite understand how the "sleep" function works. Shouldn't a tab stay asleep until I explicitly unsleep it? But clicking the moon or the grayed sleep tab menu item does not unsleep. I have to click another tab. Thanks!

I like it. But one thing that could REALLY improve my workflow would be to allow it to popout of the window so I can put it where i would like to (IE, left side of the screen. Reason for this, is sometimes I'll have other "profiles" created and I can't quickly jump between windows. Another potential improvement is on how it handles popups. I run a softphone that has to be popped up. And once in a while, I click on a tab that unfortunately share the same domain name, it auto-filters to that tab. How I get out of it, is I have to go way up top and do a couple of clicks and it's fine. I'm not sure how to do go about fixing that, I guess, not really a programmer. But I do appreciate the add-on! It's made life a little bit easier.
