Tabfolio and OneTab
OneTab turns the tabs in a window into a list with one click, then restores them one at a time or all at once. Tabfolio shows every open tab across every window as a page of cards, and keeps the ones you want for later in named Spaces.
As of October 2026. Details about OneTab come from its Chrome Web Store listing and website, listed below.

How they differ
OneTab is built around one move: collapse a window into a list and free the memory those tabs were using. Tabfolio is built around seeing what is open, with each page’s preview image, and deciding what to close, keep or group.
Tabfolio searches open tabs and saved Spaces in one box. OneTab searches the tabs you have stored.
OneTab offers end-to-end encrypted cloud sync between devices. Tabfolio’s folder sync uses a folder you already sync, with no Tabfolio server.
OneTab says tab URLs are never sent to its developers, with site icons generated by Google. Tabfolio has no server either; to show previews it fetches images from the pages themselves and asks Google or DuckDuckGo for missing site icons.
When to choose OneTab instead
- You use Firefox, Safari or Edge as well as Chrome and want the same tool in each.
- You mostly want to clear a window in one click and get the memory back.
- You want cloud sync across devices without setting up a synced folder.
- You like marking saved tabs with stars and tasks.
When Tabfolio fits better
- You want to see every open tab, across every window, with previews.
- You want one search for open and saved tabs.
- You prefer your data on your computer, with sync only through a folder you choose.
Moving from OneTab
Tabfolio v0.14.0 imports OneTab’s text export. Each group becomes a new Space next to your existing ones, and Tabfolio keeps a copy of your data from before the import.
