Add-on summary

This adds an item to the main menu "Tabs Import" to restore/load tabs URLs from a text file. To use it open a text file with URLs in the browser and select the mentioned menu item. It will read the addresses from that file and create new tabs after the last one.

If no valid URLs are found in the current file or any error occurs a notification will appear in the device status bar.

To open a text file directly from Firefox you may navigate to the folder containing the file from the browser by using the URL like this: file:///sdcard/[folder] (input it directly in the address bar or input file: to enter the file system root and then navigate to the final folder). You may also create a bookmark to that folder for quick access.


This is the migration of the old addon Tabs Backup for Firefox 57+. It was split into 2 addons to add 2 menu items (not possible with 1 addon only). These are Tabs Export and Tabs Import. To save tabs to a text file use the Tabs Export addon.
