Recorded in real Chrome and explained step by step. Turn the voice on: it takes two and a half minutes.
No tricks: the lamp tab was snoozed with “in 1 minute” and came back on its own, for real.
Close it today.
It is back tomorrow at 9.
It is this easy.

It comes back
At the time you chose it opens again. If you left a note, it shows over the page until you close it.
Easy, for real.
This is all you need to know.
Your note is waiting
When the tab comes back, your note shows over the page. It stays there until you close it.
Colour is time
Every hour of the day has its own sky colour. You see when each tab comes back at a glance.
Everything in one list
See which tabs are asleep, search for one, change its time or open it now.
Changed your mind? Undo
After you snooze a tab you have 5 seconds to undo it. Don’t want it? Turn it off in Settings.
Same as last time
One tap repeats the time you picked before. Or type “random” and let zzzTab surprise you.
Your own sounds
A soft sound when a tab goes to sleep and another when it wakes up. Turn each on or off, and test it first.
Make it yours
Choose your own time buttons (from 1 to 8), your language, and light or dark.

What it does for you
- Understands CSV files from other tab-snooze apps, and zzzTab’s own.
- Reads dates as day-month-year, in your time.
- Skips the ones you already have.
- The ones already past due open one by one.
- The file is read in your browser: it is never uploaded anywhere.
zzzTab is independent and not affiliated with other apps.
Your tabs are yours.
The zzzTab extension has no servers, accounts or statistics. Everything is saved in your browser, and Chrome stops it from connecting to the internet. This website only keeps what you choose to send us (a vote, an idea or a message) and counts visits without cookies.
"permissions": ["tabs", "tabGroups", "storage", "alarms", "favicon", "offscreen", "scripting"],
"optional_host_permissions": ["<all_urls>"],
"content_security_policy": {
"extension_pages": "default-src 'none'; script-src 'self'; … connect-src 'none'; …"
}This is what its manifest declares. Anyone can check it at chrome://extensions.
Read the privacy policyWhat it asks for, and why
- Tabs
- Read the title and link of what you snooze, close it and open it again.
- Tab groups
- Put each tab back in its group.
- Storage
- Keep your list in this browser.
- Alarms
- Wake each tab at its time.
- Site icons
- Show each tab’s icon without going online.
- Sound
- Play the soft sound on wake-up.
- Show on the page (optional)
- Only if you turn it on: draw your note over the tab that wakes up. Chrome words it as “read and change data on all sites”; zzzTab only draws the note, it doesn’t read your pages or send anything.
Frequently asked questions
How much does it cost?
It is free and has no ads.
What if Chrome is closed when the time comes?
When you open it, the tabs that are past due open one by one.
Does it sync between my computers?
No: everything stays in your browser, so nothing leaves it. To move your list to another computer, export it and import it there.
Does it keep what I typed in the tab?
No. zzzTab opens the page again by its address. It does not keep what you were typing.
Why does it need permission to see my tabs?
To read the title and link of the tab you snooze, close it and open it again. It does not read what is inside the pages.
How do I bring my tabs from another app?
Save them in a CSV file and drop it on “Import & export”. The steps are above.
Does it work in other browsers?
It is made for Chrome 116 or newer.
