Your tabs, backed up automatically.

Save every tab and tab group in one click. Tab Lifeboat keeps snapshots on your computer, so a crash, a Chrome update or a "helpful" cleanup never wipes them. We never see your tabs.

Tab Lifeboat's backups page: last automatic snapshot, saved sessions and tab counts

What it does

Save everything, close nothing

One click saves all windows, pinned tabs and tab groups. Your tabs stay open.

Groups come back right

Restore brings back tab group names, colours and collapsed state, window by window.

Automatic snapshots

A snapshot every few minutes, so a crash or an update costs you nothing.

Move in from OneTab or Session Buddy

Paste OneTab's export or open a Session Buddy file. You see a preview before anything is added. Step by step: from OneTab · from Session Buddy.

A backup file you own

Download one file with every session. Restoring it twice never makes doubles.

Questions

OneTab lost my tabs. Can Tab Lifeboat get them back?

No tool can bring back tabs another extension has already deleted. If OneTab still shows some of them, use its "Export URLs" and paste the text into Tab Lifeboat: you get a preview, then they are saved and snapshotted from then on.

Do you see my tabs?

No. Your tab titles and links are stored in your browser on your computer and are never sent to us; we have no servers. Details are in the privacy policy.

What happens if I uninstall?

Chrome deletes the extension's data on uninstall, ours included. Download the backup file first (Backups and settings → Backup file) and restore it after you reinstall.
