Keep reference material: docs and code tabs stay longer
Docs, code and research get a day before Bin and two weeks in it; everything else follows the default cleanup.
The steps: Unused for 3 hours → docs, code and research wait until unused for a day → Move to Bin → In Bin for 5 days (two weeks for reference) → Close.
Who it's for
- Developers.
- Writers and researchers who work from reference pages.
What happens
- Docs, code and research tabs move into Bin after a day unused, and close after two weeks there.
- Every other tab moves into Bin after 3 hours unused, and closes after 5 days there.
Always
- The tab you are on is never moved or closed.
- Pinned tabs and sites you protect are never touched.
- Tabs in groups you made yourself and tabs playing sound stay where they are.
Good to know
- Few works out which tabs are docs, code or research on your device. When it isn't sure, the tab gets the default timings.
How to use it
- Download Keep reference material: a small workflow file.
- Open Few's editor (click Few in Chrome's toolbar, then Rules), choose Import and pick the file.
- Save. The steps replace your current workflow; your protected sites and grouping stay as they are. Every step can be changed afterwards.
