FAQ

• 💬 How do I cancel groups after enabling auto-grouping?

  ✅ Click the "Auto" button at the bottom left of the sidepanel list to turn off the auto-grouping feature and cancel all current groups.

• 💬 After enabling auto-grouping, there are too many groups. How can I group more effectively?

  ✅ Click the "Settings" button at the bottom right of the sidepanel list. You can configure custom rules in the Grouping Rules section. Don’t forget to click the "Apply" button after configuration.

• 💬 Do I have to enable auto-grouping to use the full features?

  ✅ No. Auto-grouping is just one of Tabbiy’s core features. Other features like the sidepanel list, tab saving, tab hibernation, and quick switching can all be used independently.

• 💬 How do I adjust the position of the sidepanel?

  ✅ You need to go to Chrome’s Settings → Appearance → sidepanel Position option.

• 💬 The sidepanel list is too wide and takes up too much screen space.

  ✅ The current width is already the minimum for Chrome’s sidepanel. For now, you can use shortcuts or enable the "auto-close when mouse moves away" feature to reduce screen space usage.

• 💬 Are saved tabs only temporarily stored?

  ✅ Saved tabs will be displayed in the staging list and stored long-term unless manually cleared.

• 💬 Do settings sync across devices?

  ✅ Yes, your settings sync via Chrome's built-in sync — no third-party servers involved. However, saved tabs are not synced and are only stored locally.

• 💬 Is Tabbiy free to use?

  ✅ Yes! The core features—including vertical tab management, auto-grouping, tab hibernation, and tab saving—are 100% free forever with no ads. The Pro version is entirely optional for power users who need advanced automation.

• 💬 Does Tabbiy support other browsers?

  ✅ Currently, Tabbiy only supports Chrome. Due to differences in APIs and extension mechanisms, it is not compatible with other browsers.

• 💬 Does Tabbiy save memory and free up RAM?

  ✅ Yes. Tabbiy's tab hibernation unloads inactive tabs from memory while keeping them visible in the sidebar — freeing RAM without losing context. See 7 proven fixes for high Chrome memory usage for the full breakdown.

• 💬 Is Tabbiy a good OneTab alternative?

  ✅ Yes. Tabbiy offers everything OneTab does — one-click tab saving, memory freeing, session restore — plus a vertical sidebar, auto-grouping rules, and tab hibernation. See the full Tabbiy vs OneTab comparison for details.

• 💬 Does Tabbiy track my browsing data?

  ✅ No. Tabbiy is local-first with zero third-party tracking — no analytics, no remote servers, no account. Read the full privacy policy.
