Too many open tabs piling up? Save them all as bookmarks and come back to them when you're ready. Each saved session is automatically tagged with today's date, so you can tell one apart from another.

Saving tabs

Right-click the Raindrop.io extension icon and choose **Save tabs**. 
            <Frame style={{padding: '20px 0 0 0'}}><img src="/assets/save-tabs.png" style={{maxHeight: '259px', marginRight: 'auto'}} /></Frame>

            <Check>Make sure you have the [browser extension](/install-extension) installed.</Check>
        </Step>

        <Step>
            Pick a collection or leave the default, then click **Save tabs**.

            <Frame style={{padding: '10px 0 0 0'}}><img src="/assets/tabs.png" style={{marginRight: 'auto'}} /></Frame>
        </Step>

Reopening saved tabs

You can open all bookmarks in a collection at once, or select specific ones. 
    **Open entire collection:**   
    Right-click a collection in the sidebar and choose **Open all bookmarks**.

    <Frame style={{padding:0}}>![](/assets/collection-context-menu.png)</Frame>

    **Open specific bookmarks:**

    <Steps>
        <Step>
            Hover over a bookmark and click the tick mark in the top-left corner. Repeat for each bookmark you want to open.

            <Frame style={{padding:0}}>![](/assets/bookmarks-bulk.png)</Frame>
        </Step>

        <Step>
            Click **Open** in the toolbar that appears at the top.
        </Step>
    </Steps>
</Tab>
