- Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 15951259, 4 years agoOne of my favorite apps but please fix it up.
Currently:
It has a problem where it opens double tabs. I have tried every single setting and this still happens at times. it's as if it loads all of the tabs twice, and then sometimes it seems to load them multiple times. have still not figured out how or why it does it. This is currently the worst problem.
Order of the tabs. you can move the tabs around but then when you go to open a tab in a new window you get some random order of your tabs, this seems like a very easy fix.
It would be great to have a way where you could save out the URLs. This would be such a plus as any problems with Firefox, (for example thousands of tabs opening every time you open a certain container) and you might need to refresh or enter safe mode all of your containers are erased. this can be frustratingly sad.
Otherwise this is one of the most powerful functionalities of Firefox - Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 15076667, 4 years agoGreat add-in, should be built-in! Just one thing missing: it would be great to have a manager showing which site is assigned to which tab group, with the possibility of editing and adding new sites.
Background:
I have an issue with MS Sharepoint links opened from MS Outlook, they open in one tab group (none), are then redirected to another one ('work') for the microsoft login, and finally I end up with the landing page of sharepoint, rather than the document I wanted to open; some info seems to get lost on the way. I think the browser skims over some redirected site which is not in the right container on the way. - Rated 4 out of 5by Kaloonie, 4 years agoThe extension is nice, but I wish it was easier to unassign a container from a website.
- Rated 4 out of 5by melon, 4 years agoplease please please, add separate cookies and history for each container, or the ability to disable history per container, or other better customization in the settings other than color and icon.
- Rated 4 out of 5by Code Medic, 4 years agoWorks (almost) like a dream! With a bit of effort, setting up rules to split which websites fall into what container, splitting work and personal life is so easy! I have tried various solutions including multi-profile in both firefox and chrome family of browsers; it is very tricky when links are opened from other apps etc.
I would have given it a five star if containers worked well with addons that require login via their sister website. An example is the The Camelizer addon that has login via https://camelcamelcamel.com/. There is no way I can make it work with my personal profile. - Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 16576003, 4 years ago

- Rated 4 out of 5by Fabio, 4 years agoThat's what i needed, along with simple tab groups i can navigate through the web without sign in each time.
- Rated 4 out of 5by Tnarera, 4 years agoOverall fantastic in separating cookies. One thing it needs is ability to hide the history of the containers from the main browser history. Either it should have option to keep no history just cookies for signing in etc. or show separate history for each container.

- Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 16997887, 4 years agoI am so glad this exist. I can finally thwart cross-tracking. I'm specifically a fan of the possibility of assigning domains / sites to specific containers. And it's so easy to use.

- Rated 4 out of 5by Mr. S.A. Birl, 4 years ago[2021-Aug] A great and useful extension to have, but it's missing the ability to disassociate a website from *any* (or all) containers. A website's association can be moved from container to container, but cannot be reset back to no container -- something that would be needed in the case of SSOs: to log into the same website with different accounts (under different containers).
- Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 16989056, 4 years agoThe add-on is great! I can imagine that it's a bit difficult to understand if you are not that much into computers though. The only thing that I can not find is a way to manage which tabs belong to which containers. You can assign them, but you cannot manage them.
If that "feature" is added, or some one of Mozilla can explain to me how I can manage it, I'll update this review to a 5-star.
EDIT: I've found it, but why is it so hidden?
It is hidden 6 clicks deep within the extension's toolbar button. Why not put that also in the settings of Firefox add-ons menu? - Rated 4 out of 5by Katja, 4 years ago

- Rated 4 out of 5by P., 4 years agoThe idea is perfect but the actual add-on could need more colors (20 would be good, at the moment the add-on has 8) and especially more icons (40 would be good, at the moment the add-on has 13). However im grateful Mozilla does us a favor with their software :)
- Rated 4 out of 5by andrea.ippo, 4 years agoWould be perfect if the option to ask to choose a container when creating a new tab by clicking on the tab bar, would also apply to the keyboard shortcut (CTRL + T)
- Rated 4 out of 5by KauaLe, 4 years agoThis add-ons does not sync the tabs in chronological order as user has defined.
It should sync correctly on another device also. - Rated 4 out of 5by Tony Duan, 4 years ago
- Rated 4 out of 5by Григорий С., 4 years agoGood extension, but need redesign and responsible design, and zoom settings too
- Rated 4 out of 5by Ben, 4 years agoWorks very well. I would like to be able to use different containers depending on the account for a website (eg. I have separate work and personal emails).
