Open your tabs at a set time
Save a set of tabs once, choose the weekdays and the time, and Nest opens it with its tab groups and pinned tabs. On this computer, never late without asking.
Nest is a free Chrome extension for managing your tabs.
The same tabs, at the same time, without you
Some tabs are a routine: the standup board and the on-call dashboard at nine, the course page at two on Tuesdays, a reading list on Sunday evening. Save them once as a Session, choose the days and the time, and Nest opens them, with the tab groups and pinned tabs you saved.
Setting it up
Open the tabs the way you want them, grouped and pinned. In Backup, press Save this window, or name a Session and choose what to save. On the card, open the ⋯ menu, choose Schedule…, pick the days and the time, and press Save schedule. The card now says when it opens.
Never late without asking
A schedule that fires while you are away should not greet you with twelve tabs. If the time passed while Chrome was closed or the computer was asleep, Nest shows one notification, “Your scheduled session is ready”, with an Open button, and opens nothing until you press it. The card says “Missed today”, so you know which Session it was.
A routine should not need remembering.
Nest is a free tab manager for Chrome. Named Sessions keep windows, tab groups and pinned tabs; 3 are free, imported ones never count, and Pro makes them unlimited, syncs them, keeps 30 days of Session history and schedules as many as you like.
FAQ
Save the tabs as a Session in Backup. On its card, open the ⋯ menu and choose Schedule…, pick the weekdays and the time, then Save schedule. The card then reads “Opens weekdays at 9:00”, or whatever you chose.
Nothing opens on its own. If the time is more than ten minutes past when Chrome comes back, Nest shows one notification, “Your scheduled session is ready”, with an Open button, and the Session’s card says “Missed today”. The Session opens only when you press Open or Restore.
No. A schedule belongs to the computer you set it on. With Pro, the Session itself syncs everywhere, and you can add a schedule on each computer where you want it to open.
Free keeps 1 schedule active, which covers a morning routine. Pro schedules any number of Sessions, so a standup set, a Tuesday course and a Sunday reading list can each have their own. Free also includes 3 named Sessions; Pro makes Sessions unlimited.
