Overview

Your tabs are how you think. WhyTab helps you think better.

Free. No ads. No accounts. No subscriptions.

Click "Save & close tabs" and everything in your current window becomes a named collection—automatically titled based on what you were doing, like "Mostly GitHub — Friday evening" or "React, hooks — Feb 13." Your browser clears. Nothing is lost.

WhyTab is built for people who research, read, and explore in tabs. It's not a bookmark manager, and it's not a flat list like OneTab. It's an organised, searchable archive of your open sessions—one that stays clean over time.

What you can do:

→ Save an entire window as a collection in one click
→ Save a single tab to any collection without leaving the page
→ Search across every saved tab by title or URL
→ Pin collections you return to often
→ Use Prune mode to clear out old sessions quickly
→ Export your data anytime—everything stays local, no account required
