Password Reset

The ability to recover your account with a password reset has been added. Please note, however, if you need to do this you will lose your saved bookmarks. This is because we use zero-knowledge encryption and if you lose your passcode we cannot help you recover your saved data, period. 😉

To reset and recover your account follow the instructions on the forgot password page. In the (hopefully near) future we’ll be adding the ability to export your data and reimport, in the event you need to recover your account.

Tab Group Management

The ability to save and reopen tabs as groups has been added. Use the same tool you’d use to make a new collection, then select the “Add all open tabs to collection” checkbox. This will save all open tabs in the current browser (excluding those already inside another group) into your new collection.

Click the ‘Add new collection’ button

Collection Renaming and Descriptions

The ability to add a description, update a description and rename a collection has been added. Similar to renaming a bookmark, simply use the vertical ellipsis menu on any collection, click ‘Rename’ and the dialog will show up. Collection titles are now limited to 30 characters and descriptions are limited to 256 characters. Unicode characters are allowed 🎉.
