Doesn't remember tab order across Chrome restarts #312

Open wpwoodjr opened 4 years ago

wpwoodjr commented 4 years ago

I routinely run hundreds of tabs. I'm looking for an extension that will order them by time visited. Is there a way for Quick Tabs to remember the tab order across restarts of Chrome, perhaps using local storage?

wpwoodjr commented 4 years ago

I imagine the issue will be, when restarting Chrome, to match up the session restored tabs with the stored tabs in local storage. But it should be manageable based on title and URL matching.

How cool would it be to see every tab and the time/date you last accessed it in the Quick Tab window!
