The core difference
What actually separates Latr and Tab Snooze
Tab Snooze and Latr share the core mechanic: close a tab with a time and it reopens automatically. The differences are around it. Tab Snooze is a focused snoozer with presets you can tune and a todo list. Latr types the time in plain language, reopens the page at the line you stopped reading, and adds a tab manager, saved windows with their groups, a bookmark library and focus sessions - and it runs on Edge and Firefox as well as Chrome.
Switching
Switching from Tab Snooze
A Tab Snooze JSON backup opens in Latr’s import as a list of links, without its times. Give each page a time in Latr, or keep them in the library until you do.
Weighing more than Latr? See every Tab Snooze alternative, ranked by how much of Tab Snooze each one covers.
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.
Questions
Latr vs Tab Snooze: common questions
Is Latr a replacement for Tab Snooze?
It does the same core thing - a closed tab reopens on its own at the time you set - and adds reopening at the line you stopped reading, plain-language times, and Firefox and Edge versions.
Can I keep a tab without a time, like Someday?
Yes. Keep saves a page to Latr’s library with no time. Give it a time later and it becomes a reminder.
Is Latr or Tab Snooze free?
Latr: Free; Pro is $19 once, for themes, sounds and extras. Tab Snooze: Free and open source; donations welcome.
Close the tab.
It will come back.
Free, no account, and nothing leaves your device. About ten seconds to install, and one keystroke to use.
Also on Brave, Vivaldi, Arc and Opera - straight from the Chrome Web Store listing.
