We sincerely apologize for your poor experience. However, you are misunderstanding the nature of the behavior you're seeing.

One of the benefits of Workona is reduced browser memory usage. You can see our blog post about the original motivation for this feature here: https://medium.com/@qmorgan/keeping-chrome-light-on-its-feet-3f80ac2a3792

You have full control over this feature and its settings. By default, we open tabs in a suspended state in order to be able to restore your previous tabs nearly instantly — even if you had 100 tabs open in that space. If you click on a tab, it's immediately redirected to your URL. There is nothing going on on those pages besides a simple Javascript redirect (which you can verify yourself).

Using a web URL instead of an extension URL makes it a far better experience than other tab suspender extensions, since if you uninstall an extension, those suspended tabs stop working entirely. In other words, the fact that you are still being redirected to your actual tabs (one more time, per tab) after already uninstalling the extension is precisely why we do it that way. As our CTO put it:
"You can start using it today and stop using it whenever you want, without fear of losing any of your suspended tabs (plus, it will also repair any broken Great Suspender tabs it finds)."

Regarding the tabs you lost, we have multiple mechanisms to help users restore in situations like this, so please reach out to our support team for help: workona.com/contact

So sorry for the terrible first experience! We can see that you have a session in our database, which we've restored for you. In the future, if you ever lose tabs you can always restore them yourself from the "Restore previous tabs" option in the workspace menu:
https://workona.com/help/tab-manager/#restore-recent-tabs

Sorry for the confusion! That is just our tab suspension functionality you're seeing. Our suspended tabs take up essentially no memory as all they contain is redirect (no data harvesting or analytics at all). If you're by chance a developer, it should be very easy for you to confirm that is the case.

Nonetheless, you can easily disable this feature in settings here: https://workona.com/0/settings/suspension

However, once you disable the feature, you'll no longer get the benefits of tab suspension, which means that all of the tabs you have open will be using up your computer's memory.

We originally didn't have the tab suspension feature, and quickly realized that it was an essential feature for a tab manager like Workona. You can read more about the feature and the motivations behind it here:

Sorry to hear you've had a poor experience. Firefox recently made some changes that have caused a few bugs and other undesirable behaviors in our Firefox extension. We are working on fixing the bugs in our Firefox extension (which it sounds like you must have encountered, although you don't mention any issues specifically), and we hope to have them fixed soon. That said, our extensions for our other supported browsers are still rock solid.

To accuse us of not caring about the average user, or having bad developers, is just not fair. It is a very hard and rapidly changing space, and we believe we do better than any other tab manager out there. We care deeply about our users, and anyone that has reached out to our stellar support team to report an issue can attest to the truth of that.

You can access your workspace on Android by logging into workona.com in your mobile browser. We currently offer an app for iOS devices, and plan to release an Android app in the future.

We're sorry to hear you had a poor experience. We automatically backup your tabs within workspaces, so our support team may be able to help you restore your lost links.

We have since resolved this issue. We appreciate you letting us know what a bad experience this was in Firefox. Our email links are all https now.
