Overview

Drowzy automatically suspends inactive browser tabs to free up memory and keep Chrome running fast.

How it works:
• Tabs idle for 30 minutes are automatically suspended (configurable)
• Suspended tabs use zero RAM but stay in your tab bar
• Click any suspended tab to instantly wake it up
• Uses Chrome's native discard API — your tabs are never lost, even if you uninstall Drowzy

Smart protection:
• Active, pinned, and audio-playing tabs are never touched
• Tabs with unsaved form data are protected
• Whitelist your favorite sites to keep them always awake

Features:
• Save and restore tab sessions
• Keyboard shortcuts (Alt+S to suspend, Alt+Shift+S for all others, Alt+W to wake all)
• Right-click context menu for quick actions
• Lifetime stats tracking
• Dark and light theme
• Settings sync across devices
• Zero data collection, zero tracking, fully private

Drowzy is lightweight, open source, and built with privacy in mind. No accounts, no analytics, no external servers.
Everything stays in your browser.
