- Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 13716826, 7 years agoI really like this addon, it's a nice intermediate to what I really want: concurrently running sandboxed accounts. Lately, however, it appears to be a bit broken. When I open a link from an email in Google Inbox ("Fun" container), that should end up in a new container (e.g. "Finance"), the new tab closes immediately, and I'm forced to right click to open the new link. This stinks.
- Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 13676868, 7 years agoI love the concept! It's private, easy to use, and should be BUILT IN to Firefox! I just wish you could add more icons, each container has it's own individual history, passwords, etc. Also, when I sort the tabs, it moves the new tab button to the left, and I can't change it back, which is annoying. What would be nice is if I didn't have to open a new tab in a container by having to go to the container menu. If it would be right next to the new tab button, where everyone would see it would be awesome. Overall, great!
- Rated 4 out of 5by matkam, 7 years agoUseful for keeping cookies separate. Would be nice to keep add-on's and their data separate too. For example, MetaMask should only be enabled in its own container.
- Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 13711279, 7 years agoSlightly disappointed. I hoped for different privacy settings for containers (like cookies policy at least). Now it just deletes all my cookies through all containers after closing my browser.
And would be nice to have the different addons set for each container.
I still need few browsers to solve this. - Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 13707191, 7 years agoAwesome! 5-stars if I could easily take an existing tab and swap/copy/move/duplicate it into a different container (right now I have to copy URL, open new tab with different container, paste and go ... blech). Other people have asked, adding my vote!
- Rated 4 out of 5by ze.hobbit, 7 years agoJust add sync and open a new uncontained tab as a container and it will be close to perfection!
- Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 13705196, 7 years agoWould be nice to be able to move tabs over to a specific container and also be able to edit the list of domains in a container.
- Rated 4 out of 5by Ian M, 7 years agoI absolutely love containers! They help immensely with web development and having multiple test accounts. No more private windows and using both Chrome and Firefox just to test more than 2 accounts at a time!
- Rated 4 out of 5by Andy, 7 years agoThis add-on is useful for memory management and organizing the endless collection of tabs I seem to keep open.
I look forward to how the developers can make these easier to use and organize. Certain aspects about the implementation feel clunky to me, but the need is real. - Rated 4 out of 5by Helder, 7 years ago
- Rated 4 out of 5by Jan, 7 years ago5.0.1: the only lacking feature I can think of is one to move a group of opened tabs to a new window
- Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 13689932, 7 years agoWould be even more useful if settings (which site to open in which container) would be synced across the devices
- Rated 4 out of 5by PN, 7 years agoWorks great. Some irritations - no shortcut to open new tab in specific container. Can't specify the existing web site I'm on to go to a specific container - I have to open the tab container and then reopen the site in that container. Maybe I'm missing something? Would be 5 stars if I could do the above.
- Rated 4 out of 5by allengeorge, 7 years agoIt's a great way to keep cookies from different 'worlds' (i.e. work, personal, etc.) apart. Just works, and I've never had issues.
That said, not 5 stars for a few reasons:
1. URL autocomplete is shared between containers
2. Login (username) autocomplete appears to be shared between containers - Rated 4 out of 5by svyat7, 7 years ago
- Rated 4 out of 5by TheWeasel, 7 years agoGood for increasing Privacy/Anonymity online by compartmentalizing tabs into their own little virtual sandbox of sorts.
