Tabby — Tab Manager & Memory Saver
Close duplicate tabs, search across every window, and auto-suspend idle tabs to save memory.
Overview
Tabby is a fast, private tab manager and memory saver — built to replace the heavy, over-permissioned suspenders of the past.
Too many tabs slowing your browser to a crawl? Tabby frees memory using Chrome's built-in tab-discard engine, so inactive tabs stop hogging RAM but stay right where you left them. Click one and it reloads instantly.
Only three permissions are required: tabs, storage, and alarms — no content scripts, no access to page content or browsing data.
Features
- Close duplicate tabs in one click, or automatically as they open
- Search every open tab by title or URL across all windows
- Auto-suspend idle tabs with a configurable threshold (default 30 minutes)
- Smart exceptions for the active tab, pinned tabs, and tabs playing audio
- Personal allowlist for sites that should never be suspended
- Optional tab-count badge
- Settings sync across your own Chrome profiles
