FREQUENTLY ASKED

HOW DO I INSTALL THETAB?+
Installation is simple:
  • Visit the Chrome Web Store
  • Click "Add to Chrome"
  • Confirm the installation
  • Look for the TheTab icon in your toolbar
That's it! TheTab is ready to use immediately.
HOW DO I SAVE MY TABS?+
Just click the TheTab icon in your toolbar.

All your open tabs (except pinned and grouped ones) will instantly close and save to a list. You can also use the keyboard shortcut Ctrl+Shift+O (or Cmd+Shift+O on Mac).
HOW DO I RESTORE MY TABS?+
Open a new tab to see your saved groups.

Click "Restore All" to open all tabs in a group at once, or click individual tabs to open them one at a time. It's that simple.
WHERE ARE MY TABS STORED?+
Everything is stored locally on your device.

TheTab uses your browser's local storage. Nothing is sent to the cloud. Your tabs never leave your computer. 100% private.
CAN I EXPORT MY SAVED TABS?+
Yes! Export and import anytime.

Click the "Export" button on the main page. This downloads a JSON file with all your saved tabs. You can import this file on another computer or keep it as a backup.
DOES THETAB WORK OFFLINE?+
Yes, completely.

Since everything is stored locally, TheTab works without an internet connection. Save and restore tabs anytime, anywhere.
IS THETAB FREE?+
Yes. Completely free. Forever.

No premium plans. No hidden costs. No "upgrade to unlock features." TheTab is free and always will be.
WHAT BROWSERS ARE SUPPORTED?+
Chrome, Firefox, Edge, and Brave.

TheTab works on all Chromium-based browsers (Chrome, Edge, Brave, Opera, Vivaldi). Other browsers coming soon.
HOW IS THIS DIFFERENT FROM ONETAB?+
TheTab preserves the original OneTab experience.

We built TheTab because OneTab changed their core functionality. TheTab gives you back the simple, one-click tab saving that made OneTab great in the first place.
