Add-on summary

Automatically backup ao3 works so you never lose what you're reading again. When you start reading an ao3 work, ao3 saver servers will automatically back up the work you're reading. If the story ever goes down, the 404 page you're met with will have a button to take you right to the backup pdf stored on the ao3 saver server.

The ao3 menu assists in finding lost works by keeping a history of each work you've visited. You can search and find a deleted work your previously viewed with this extension with ease.

No data on what you view is kept on anything but your local device. The only thing the server stores is the pdf files for the works completely unattached from you.

Please let me know if you have any issues or suggestions for this extension. You can contact me at [email protected].

I'm planning on keeping the servers up for this extension and continue support for it for years into the future.

User reviews

Literally the best thing to have ever been created. 10/10.

Absolute lifesaver! Only saves current chapter for multi chapter fics but you can just view full work and it'll save the whole thing like that.
