The core difference
What actually separates Latr and Tab Manager Plus
Tab Manager Plus is about what is open now: find it, move it, close it. Latr has the same kind of overview - every tab in every window, filtered as you type, duplicates marked, a tab limit that opens a new window - and asks for tab access only when you first open that screen. Latr then adds the part Tab Manager Plus does not list: closing a tab with a time and getting it back.
Switching
Switching from Tab Manager Plus
There is nothing to import: Latr’s Open tabs screen reads the tabs you have open as soon as you allow it. Save a window you want to keep with Save all tabs.

Latr’s import reads a pasted list, a bookmarks HTML file, and export files from OneTab, Toby, Session Buddy, Raindrop.io and Pocket. Groups and titles survive for the formats it knows; any other file that contains web addresses comes in as a list of links. Only http and https links are kept, and anything left out is counted.
