I waited so many years for a bugless and just better OneTab alternative!

I wanted to show the appreciation by using your language first... Thank you sooooooo much!
Thanks for implementing that!
It works with a single click.

TheTab brings back the classic OneTab experience you loved, one-click tab saving, plus gamification with 19 achievements, XP system, statistics dashboard, and a beautiful interface. You also get 7 context menu save options, OneTab import, undo history, and smart dedup. We'll never remove the features you rely on.
Every tab you save earns XP points. As you accumulate XP, you level up through 10 tiers. You can also unlock 19 achievements for milestones like saving 1000 tabs, maintaining streaks, and more!
Ctrl+Shift+1 (Cmd+Shift+1 on Mac) to save all tabs instantly. Ctrl+Shift+2 (Cmd+Shift+2 on Mac) to open the side panel. You can customize these in your browser's extension settings.
Yes! TheTab tracks recently closed tabs for up to 30 days (configurable). Just go to the 'Recently Closed' section to restore any tab you've closed.
TheTab works on Chrome, Edge, Firefox, Brave, Opera, and other Chromium-based browsers. Full feature parity across all platforms.
Your saved tabs stay on your device - we never see your URLs or browsing history. Only anonymous usage analytics (a random ID, never your tabs), which you can turn off. There is no TheTab account and no server of ours. Two backups are on by default and both use your browser rather than us: a bookmarks folder that tracks your saved groups, and a safety net that mirrors your most recent groups to your browser account so they survive a reinstall. If your browser sync is on, your browser vendor moves those the way it moves your bookmarks - still never sent to us, and both switch off in Options. See our Privacy Policy for full details.
Yes, 100% free forever. All features included - gamification, statistics, achievements, everything. No hidden fees, no premium tiers, no ads.
Yes, if you want: turn on the bookmark mirror (Options › Appearance) and your saved tabs live in a "TheTab" bookmarks folder that your browser's own sync carries to your other devices - no TheTab cloud, no account. You can also export/import your tab lists as JSON files.
