About:
SessionRestore is a macOS utility designed to preserve and restore Safari browsing sessions, ensuring users can seamlessly resume reading across multiple tabs. It automatically saves your current window and tab state, acting as a safeguard against accidental closures or browser crashes. This tool is ideal for researchers and power users who manage numerous web pages for later review.

Key Features:

Automatic session saving and restoration
Preserves multiple windows and tab groups
Lightweight background operation
Manual trigger for instant snapshots

Use Cases:

Resuming a complex research project with dozens of open tabs after a system restart
Preventing loss of work when Safari crashes unexpectedly

Alternatives:

Tabs Outliner – Offers more complex tree-style tab management but is significantly heavier and more expensive.
Safari's native Tab Groups – A built-in solution for organizing tabs, but lacks automated session restoration after a crash.
