- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 14646294, 6 years agoThis is an awesome and very useful extension, but please, please make it "compatible" with Tree style tabs! It could be such a breakthrough for the daily workflows of the TST users! (I will add the same comment to the TST developers. I am almost sure there will be an "easy" solution to store tree info in the bookmarks from which the whole tree can be built back easily by TST when a session is restored...) Thanks a lot!

posted 6 years agoThanks for review. Adding support for TST is a feature request that I had for a while (https://github.com/ReDEnergy/SessionSync/issues/43). I understand why it would be so useful and I really want to add support for it but it's not really easy for me to do so. Because I use bookmarks and I store them linearly it's quite problematic to rebuild the TST structure. I might be able to do so using by saving additional information alongside bookmarks but that's no longer possible since WebExtension API. I have some alternative solutions but all of them have a few drawbacks and I'm still pondering on which method to implement since it can happen that by uninstalling the addon to lose everything not saved in bookmarks and that might be pretty bad for the addon. Anyway, I try to add this feature, can't promise how fast I will be able to do so but I definitely want to hurry up with it. Thanks again for your support. - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 14256516, 6 years agoI was using Tab Session Manager but this one's sooooo much better! Even better than Session Buddy (IMO) what with the syncing between devices and whatnot.
Good work! - Rated 5 out of 5by Ritesh Shah, 6 years ago

Danke schön - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 14610497, 6 years agoAwesome addon, I've been looking for this for years ! I even started to develop one myself, as all the other I've tried weren't satisfying for my needs.
Thank you Gabriel :)Developer response
posted 6 years agoThanks a lot as well. It's great to hear that others find it as useful as myself. - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 14590661, 6 years ago

posted 6 years agoThank you for using "the best session manager" :D. I still have a long list of overdue features but I will try to push through them over time.- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 13873326, 6 years ago
- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 14586468, 6 years agoNice looking Addon. Would be nice, if I could save all oopen Windows (sessions) with one click.
edit: welp, did not see that Slider! Thank You. 5*
(I think it would be nice if all the windows from one Session would be stored in one parent folder.)Developer response
posted 6 years agoLater edit:
Thanks for updating the review. Regarding the question with storing all sessions in a parent folder. I will try to add an option to do this in a future version.
------------------------
Thanks for review. Not sure what exactly do you mean by saving all with one click. Can't you do that right know ? I mean... there's a button on the addon taskbar to the right, just above the current tabs that when pressed will show all tabs from all windows. If you have that ON, then when saving all windows will be saved (each one separated into it's own folder but all of them will be saved) with one click. Is there something else you would expect from it ? - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 14562270, 6 years agoЗадумка отличная, но много недоработок:
- Автосохранение сессий по времени не работает. Сессии сохраняются при закрытии Firefox
- При восстановлении сессий порядок следования вкладок ВСЕГДА меняется на обратный. Я сообщал об этом разработчику 2-3 месяца назад - исправления нет.
- Сессии сохраняются при закрытии последнего окна Firefox. Если к основному окну (100 вкладок) я открыл дополнительное с парой вкладок и при закрытии Firefox последним закрыл дополнительное окно, то ВСЕ, ВСЯ СЕССИЯ УТЕРЯНА!!! А авто-сохранение не работает!
PS: Thanks for the quick response. Your addition is good and very necessary! I would very much like you to take the time to fix the autosave by time and the sequence of tabs during restoration. Good luck!Developer response
posted 6 years agoI don't know Russian and I used Google translate. I will respond for each of your points
- The auto-save functionality is working how it was implemented. That's not saying that it's how you would expect it to be working. I know that I made a bad decision to automatically save over the same session and that's what causes that issue. I know it's not great, I've been working on a better solution but I just didn't have time to finish it (As much as I really care about the addon, we all have sometimes other priorities). That doesn't mean I don't plan to update it. I will push an update with some bug-fixes in 1-2 days, sadly doesn't fix one of those reported by you because they ended up being far more complex to finish.
- I will assume that's happening only because you have set the Firefox option to OPEN NEW TAB NEXT TO THE CURRENT ONE. Because otherwise the order they open should be the same. I'm sorry that I coulnd't fix this in time although you reported it a while ago but I simple didn't know what would cause it and I had no idea it was because of that firefox setting until another user told me about it. Now I know, I had a few solutions for it, but it's not really great because it creates other problems and I simply can't read Firefox settings from the addon and I have no good solution how to fix this automatically. I mean, I have to reverse the order tabs normally open because of that setting and I can't know for sure when I should do that or not. Probably I will add an option to toggle the order tabs are open and let user fix it as they consider. I will try to provide this option in the next update (like I said it should be available in 1-2 days as I still want to make sure everything works as expected)
- Yes your right, but that's because of the way I implemented it. I will try to hurry up and finish the new implementation.
I promise that I will fix them, If by any chance you will still consider using it again by that time and you consider things are fixed please remember about this review and think about updating it.
Thanks a lot for feedback. - Rated 5 out of 5by grouvi, 6 years ago
- Rated 5 out of 5by Middleleaze, 6 years agoThis add-on was offered for my Android phone. However, after I accepted I was advised that it was not available for my platform!
The response from the Developer was professional and accurate. I have tried the Addon with Firefox and it is superb. In the light of this I have amended my feedback.Developer response
posted 6 years agoUpdate:
wow. I wasn't really expected such a change. Thanks a lot for considering giving it a second chance.
P.S I do hope I will be able to port it sometime on Android. Thanks again.
------------------
It's not my fault that the site recommended you this addon on Android :). The addon is clearly not marked as Android compatible so I have no idea what exactly happened. I hope you can understand that by giving a 1 star rating for such a cause you actually hurt the developer without solving anything. - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 13328130, 6 years ago
