by Firefox user 16449509, 4 years agoHas a number of decent futures for manual saving/sorting of specific sessions but is absolutely useless for protecting you from accidental loss of tab information. If you have a lot of tabs open and you'd like some auto-backup of them... this is not for you.
Other add-ons will take regular recordings of your open tabs and/or history so you can restore them later in case of accidental crashes or shutdowns... this does none of that no matter what settings are enabled.
If you're someone that obsessively manually saves your work though this is a great option.

posted 4 years agoHi. Even though you might expect that as a main feature the addon description clearly states that you have to "Save them", at least that's the main reason of the addon. Now, I really don't know how to describe that better. Getting a 2 star rating for not having a feature that I never intended to add is quite odd.
Of course, there is a secondary aspect of the addon, the history tab will constantly save each 15 seconds (or how many you set) your current active session and you can find it there in case the browser crashes.
Of course things might not be exactly what you may expect, but that I can't change. The addon was designed to work with bookmarks and saving the session constantly into bookmarks would have been impossible. The addon main purpose is to be a session management tool, not an auto-saving session (although it does have that as well in the History tab)
