Question 1

Is TabVault really free?

Accepted Answer

Yes — completely. There are no paid tiers, no subscriptions, and no license keys. Every feature, including unlimited Quick Saves, categories, and Run All, is free for everyone.

Question 2

Does TabVault see my browsing data?

Accepted Answer

No. TabVault stores everything in Chrome's local storage on your own device. Nothing is sent to any server, and your saved tabs are never uploaded anywhere.

Question 3

Does it work with YouTube?

Accepted Answer

Yes. TabVault captures the exact video timestamp and resumes it automatically the next time you open that saved tab.

Question 4

Do I need to create an account?

Accepted Answer

No. TabVault works entirely without an account or sign-up. All your saved tabs live in Chrome's local storage on your device.

Question 5

How do I restore a saved tab?

Accepted Answer

Open the TabVault popup, find the tab or category you saved, and click its Run button (or Run All for a whole category). The tab reopens at the exact scroll position or video timestamp it had when you saved it.

Question 6

Does it work on all websites?

Accepted Answer

TabVault saves the URL and scroll position for any website. Video timestamp restore works for YouTube and any site using standard HTML5 video players.

Question 7

Can I use it on multiple devices?

Accepted Answer

TabVault stores data locally per device, so your saves on one computer are separate from another. Simply install TabVault on each device you want to use it on.

Question 8

What happens if I uninstall TabVault?

Accepted Answer

Uninstalling the extension removes all locally stored data along with it. Since nothing is backed up to a server, be sure to run any tabs you still need before you uninstall.
