Session Sync v3.1.12
THIS ADDON IS NOT INTENDED FOR AUTO-SAVING OF SESSIONS!
Save sessions as bookmarks and access them across devices
Using Session Sync you can save sessions as bookmarks.
Use the rich user interface for session management: create, restore, open, edit or delete sessions/bookmarks or add new tabs to a certain session.
Why save sessions as bookmarks?
- all the data saved will be there no matter what addon you may use in the feature
- when using the url bar, Firefox will automatically suggest links based on your bookmarks
- easy access/edit/backup and then restore saved data using the integrated Bookmark Manager (even on smartphone / tablet) even if the addon is not installed
Shortcut keys
- CTRL+SHIFT+F - open the Widget UI
- CTRL+SHIFT+V - open the Tab View
- CTRL+SHIFT+U - open the Window View
- Shortcuts configuration can be changed from configuration (Firefox 60 and up, lower version do not offer the API required)
