- Rated 1 out of 5by Tofuwuerfel, 2 years agoGreat idea, bad implementation.
The workspaces just save the URL for each tab, not the tab itself. This results in having to reload all pages when switching workspaces which can be quite annoying.
Further, workspaces get mixed up. When switching, tabs won't get closed most of the time which leads to a clustered workspace, rendering this addon useless. - Rated 1 out of 5by Ashraf Ahmed, 2 years agoBuggy addons. It opens new workspace tabs with old ones. it was good. hope to be fixed soon
- Rated 1 out of 5by Nowmeis, 2 years agoSeems like a great idea but dosen't support multiple windows - so not sutable for me - lost tabs immediatly.
Would be 4 stars but given last update was 6 years ago its not likley to ever be fixed. - Rated 1 out of 5by Badri Madrid, 2 years agoI lost a whole workspace (all my tabs) because of this addon !

I tried out this add-on, and it f***ed things up right away. Here's what happened:
Testwise, I put two tabs into a new workspace (which essentially is a separate window). Then I closed these tabs, which closed the workspace window, which closed firefox in general (which I didn't want, nor could I have expected, neither did I initiate this).
Fun fact: I had ~50+ tabs open, all of which were gone now. After reopening Firefox, I was presented with an empty browser - no tabs at all. In the browser menue, there were no windows offered for reopening, but at least, I could restore some of the previous tabs. Half of them. Which means that the other, older half is completely and entirely gone through testing out this add-on.
Thanks for that!
I really can't recommend the "tab workspaces" add-on for firefox. - Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 17624534, 2 years agoTried this as a replacement for Opera workspaces. First it worked okay but now it is mixing up the workspaces.
When I switch from one to another it simply adds the tabs of the workspace I want to switch to into the workspace I am currently in, even doing this again when I "switch" again.
Ending in a total mess not usable anymore sadly.. :-/ - Rated 1 out of 5by SunnyFox, 3 years agoUsed this to organise all my tabs into workspaces. It worked until I re-started Windows. Windows applied an automatic update without my consent. All workspaces disappeared and I lost all tabs except the current one. A spurious empty workspace appeared. Looking through the reviews, I see others have had this problem several years ago. Unfortunately the app gives no advice about the loss of workspaces or where they are saved. There is no consideration of how to back them up. The add-in still ignores the "load when tab is opened" setting in the menu and loads all the tabs in a workspace first, which makes it very slow to open every time. Fortunately I backed up my profiles with all my tabs in. Will be un-installed.
Using W10.0 21H1 and FireFox v97.0.2, both the latest versions at 8 Mar 22. - Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 16524818, 4 years ago
- Rated 1 out of 5by MarkReal, 5 years agoI like what it does but when you open up a workspace it loads every single tab in the group instead of just the one you're on
- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 15310306, 5 years agoIt will be nice if it somehow it saved workspaces in a JSON file somewhere on the PC. Just some how.
- Rated 1 out of 5by Keychain1, 6 years agoedit: okay, this is starting to happen much more often now: every so often all tabs except from the group I am currently using will disappear. Without additional tab consistency, I cannot use this addon.
Love the ability to separate tabs by projects and such.
Please add a feature to open link in new workspace when right clicking on a - Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 14277819, 7 years agoSaved my tabs into a worskspace, lost all of them
- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 13932604, 7 years agoa previous review stated exactly the problem that I randomly get:
"Cannot switch between workspaces. When I try doing this, all tabs from another workspace load in the active one."
Please tell me if I am doing something incorrectly, this problem renders this fantastic feature unusable... - Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 13454760, 7 years agoUpgrade to FF 57.0.1 , all defined Workspaces seem to be lost, how to recover ?
- Rated 1 out of 5by Arthur, 7 years agoReverses the tabs order on every workspace switch.
On opening a new window it just forgets everything.
