Overview

Product summary

Review the store description, core capabilities, and common use cases.

This extension automatically tells Chrome that every tab you open is "not auto discardable". This might help solve issues where Chrome kills more tabs than you would want to, however, this is not foolproof, and tabs might still get discarded if your system is out of memory.

No configuration needed, the extension will mark every open tab as "not auto discardable" as long as you installed the extension and haven't disabled it.

Want to make sure this extension is working? Go to chrome://discards in a new tab and see how every row has a cross in the "auto discardable" column.

I ONLY use Chrome for Gmail/Hangouts because Google keeps limiting features when on other browsers like not being to make calls on Hangouts and since I need to have 10 different accounts, each meant for different things, open on Gmail at once so I'll be able to do the things I need to while being able to instantly respond to notifications/messages/calls/etc., tab discarding is TORTURE! I'll be on one Gmail tab for maybe 3 minutes writing an email or doing a tech-assist call, then the other 9 will unload, so I'm not getting notifications, ON TOP OF having to reload Gmail completely which for the past year has been absurdly slow, taking even up to a minute to load the non-basic HTLM version (no add ons/modifications past the these and decent connection but their code is ridiculously inefficient). Point is, this is a life saver, anyone who hates tab discarding should get this, Google should really stop forcing "features" on people!

Would be nice if I could configure a list of URLs which should not be discarded
