Firefox Multi-Account Containers by Firefox

Rated 4 out of 5
by Firefox user 13909021, 8 years agoSeems to work great so far, but I have a few suggestions.
Currently it doesn't appear that your settings sync between devices. I've got FireFox installed on both my work computer and my home computer, logged in on my personal email and everything synced between the two. I spent some time last night setting up my containers, and setting certain sites to only open in specific containers, etc. When I logged in on my work laptop, it shows all the original containers (none of the new ones I setup), and when I visit certain sites, they don't default to the container I configured on my home computer. This functionality would be great to have.
Another suggestion would be able to move an existing tab/site into a container. When I installed the addon, I had several tabs open. I had to open a specific container tab, then copy/paste the URL from the generic tab, to the container tab. It also doesn't appear to let you move the tab from one container to another.
I'm still getting used to the addon, so maybe this little nuances aren't as big of a deal, especially as I setup some default behaviors, but for me the biggest thing would be addon settings/containers syncing across browsers.
Edit: Oh, once you get the syncing of settings across devices, enabling this addon for mobile use would be awesome.

- Rated 3 out of 5by family man, 18 hours agoI would have rated this a 5 star, because I love containers in general. But a new feature was added where when dragging a tab to a new location you can accidentally move it and an adjacent tab to containers. I don't want that. I can't find how to disable it. Its very annoying

- Rated 4 out of 5by Simon, 16 days agoThis extension is all I needed.
Major issue I faced is it fails to open the specific bookmarks in the designated containers.
Other is opening tab by keyboard shortcut is limited to only ten containers. If there is a functionality to increase that then this addon would be great. - Rated 5 out of 5by Pavel, 16 days ago
