Workona Chrome extension

Workona groups your open tabs into named workspaces, letting you save, close, and reopen entire sets of tabs for different projects. It's best for people juggling many tabs across multiple ongoing projects. The catch: getting the most out of it takes a bit of setup time organizing your workspaces up front.

What Workona does

Workona organizes your open browser tabs into workspaces built around projects or tasks. Instead of hunting through dozens of tabs, you can save a workspace, close it, and reopen the exact same set of tabs later, then switch instantly between different workspaces as you move between projects.

Workona free vs paid

Workona installs for free from the Chrome Web Store. Check the current Chrome Web Store listing or Workona's own site for the latest details on any paid plans, as pricing and plan structures can change over time.

Is Workona safe?

To manage and organize your tabs, Workona needs permission to read your open tabs and browsing activity. That access is what allows it to group, save, and reopen tab sets as workspaces. Review the permissions Chrome shows before installing if you want to confirm the scope.

Workona: FAQs

Is Workona free?

Is Workona safe to use?

It needs access to your open tabs to organize them into workspaces, which is required for its core tab-management feature.

How do I use the Workona extension?

Install it, create a workspace, add your tabs, and switch between workspaces as you move between projects.

What is a Workona workspace?

A workspace is a named group of tabs tied to a project or task that you can save, close, and reopen later.

Does Workona replace Chrome's tab groups?

Workona goes further than Chrome's built-in tab groups by letting you save and reopen entire workspaces across sessions.

What are alternatives to Workona?

Toby and OneTab are common alternatives for organizing and saving groups of tabs.

Can Workona reduce Chrome's memory use?

By letting you close whole workspaces instead of leaving many tabs open, it can help reduce the memory tied up in unused tabs.

Does Workona sync across devices?

Check the extension's account settings after installing, as tab-manager tools typically tie workspace syncing to signing in.

How many workspaces can I create?

Do I lose my tabs if I close a workspace?

No, closing a saved workspace keeps its tabs stored so you can reopen the same set later.
