TabVitals is currently distributed as a manual Chrome beta while the Chrome Web Store version is being prepared.

Free during beta.

What TabVitals does

  • Finds memory-heavy Chrome tabs.
  • Shows memory in MB and GB where Chrome provides the data.
  • Lets you sleep heavy tabs without closing them.
  • Keeps active, pinned, playing and Always Awake tabs protected.
  • Fixes or resets one broken website without clearing unrelated browser sessions.
  • Runs diagnostics locally.

Install the beta

  1. Download TabVitals-v0.4.5-Beta-Chrome-Extension.zip.
  2. Unzip the downloaded file.
  3. Open chrome://extensions.
  4. Enable Developer mode.
  5. Click Load unpacked.
  6. Select the extracted TabVitals folder containing manifest.json.
  7. Pin TabVitals to the Chrome toolbar if desired.

Privacy

TabVitals does not upload:

  • passwords;
  • cookies;
  • page content;
  • browsing history.

Diagnostics run locally on the user's computer.

Security

Chrome may show a diagnostics/debugger warning because TabVitals uses Chrome's debugging interface to measure tab and process diagnostics during an X-Ray scan. The connection is temporary and used only while diagnostics run.

No page content, passwords, cookies, or browsing history are uploaded.
