Overview
Tab Hibernator Pro — automatically free up RAM from tabs you're not using.
Too many open tabs slow Chrome to a crawl. Tab Hibernator Pro quietly suspends the tabs you've stopped using and frees the memory they were holding — then brings them back exactly where you left off, the moment you need them. No tab loss. No setup. No tracking.
★ KEY FEATURES
• Automatic hibernation — inactive tabs are suspended after a timeout you choose (5 minutes to 4 hours). • Smart exclusions — tabs playing audio, pinned tabs, tabs with unsaved form input, and your active tab are never touched. • Whitelist — keep specific sites awake forever (exact domain and sub-domain matching). • Smart Memory mode — hibernates faster automatically when your system RAM runs low. • Battery Saver mode — only hibernate while on battery power. • One-click controls — Hibernate All / Wake All right from the toolbar popup. • Quick-Wake search (Ctrl+Shift+K) — instantly find and restore any tab. • Restore on focus — optionally wake a tab the moment you click it.
★ DEEP SLEEP STASH
Go beyond hibernation. Stash tabs to close them completely and save them for later: • Stash Tab — tuck away a single page. • Stash Group — save an entire Chrome tab group (name, color and all tabs) and restore it intact. • Stash All — clear every suspended tab at once for a fresh start. Everything reopens from the Stash Board in your dashboard whenever you want.
★ ANALYTICS DASHBOARD
A clean dashboard shows estimated memory saved, tabs suspended over time, your top hibernated sites, and a 7-day activity chart — plus a built-in guide to using stashing effectively.
★ PRIVACY FIRST
• No accounts, no tracking, no analytics sent anywhere — everything stays on your device. • Optional tab previews are OFF by default; no screenshots are ever captured unless you turn them on.
Note: memory figures are estimates based on typical tab usage and may vary by site.
