A soft little creature that lives on your desktop, eats the tabs you're not ready to lose, and gives them back when you ask.

Drag a Chrome tab onto the alien. It opens its mouth, swallows the link whole — URL gone from your bar, kept somewhere safe.
The alien holds it. No cloud. No account. Just a little creature on your desktop that remembers the things you didn't want to lose.
Tap the alien. Your history appears. One click and the tab is back in Chrome, right where you left off.
how it works
Download Tabnora and add the Chrome extension. Two clicks, thirty seconds. The alien appears on your desktop — yours to keep.
Drag any Chrome tab onto the alien. It opens its mouth and swallows the link whole. The tab disappears from your bar. The alien smiles.
Click the alien. Your whole history is there. Pick any tab — it reopens in Chrome. No searching. No bookmarks. Just ask the alien.
There it is. Floating next to whatever you're reading.
It's a small macOS app that floats on your desktop as a cute alien. You drag Chrome tabs onto it, the alien "eats" them — closing the tab in Chrome and remembering the URL. You can reopen any eaten tab at any time by clicking the alien and picking from your history.
V1 supports Chrome only. The alien speaks Chrome through a tiny browser extension that handles the drag-and-drop. Safari and Firefox support are on the list for later.
Locally, in a small database on your Mac. No account needed. No sync. No cloud. If you delete the app, your history file stays until you choose to remove it.
The first 10 feeds are free, no strings attached. After that, a one-time $9 unlocks unlimited feeding on this Mac. No subscription, all future updates included. The unlock is per device — if you use Tabnora on more than one Mac, each is its own adoption. Early adopters lock in the price.
No. Tab URLs, titles, and your history live on your Mac and never leave it. The only optional exception: anonymous usage stats — off by default, opt-in only, and they never include URLs, titles, or domains. Just event counts like "a tab was fed." You control it in Settings.
macOS 13 Ventura or later. Apple Silicon and Intel both work.
Drop it on the alien. It'll keep it safe.
