Moving from Session Buddy
Bring your Session Buddy collections into Tab Lifeboat. Nothing is uploaded: the move happens on your computer.
1. Export from Session Buddy
- Open Session Buddy, click the gear icon and choose Export…
- Choose all collections (or only the ones you want), pick JSON as the format, then click Select destination and save the file.
2. Import into Tab Lifeboat
- Install Tab Lifeboat from the Chrome Web Store (free).
- Right-click the Tab Lifeboat icon and choose Options, then find Move in from OneTab or Session Buddy.
- Choose the saved JSON file (or paste its text). Tab Lifeboat shows how many tabs and groups it found before you import.
- Click Import. Each collection or folder becomes a saved group.
Good to know
- Both older Session Buddy files (sessions and windows) and newer ones (collections, folders and links) work.
- Keep your Session Buddy file until you have checked the import.
- From now on Tab Lifeboat takes automatic snapshots, and you can download a backup file any time.
