One click. One hotkey. One schedule.

three things, done well
01 · save

Snapshot any window in one click

Click Save current — Daypack snapshots every tab in this Chrome window (pinned state and tab groups preserved). Or start a blank session and paste URLs in by hand.

02 · hotkey

Open with a keystroke

Bind a session to slot 1–9. Press Ctrl+Shift+1 from anywhere in Chrome and the saved tabs appear — in a new window or replacing the current one.

03 · schedule

Show up at the right time

Pick weekdays + a time. Mon–Fri 09:00 opens your work set when you sit down. The schedule fires once at the next matching minute and re-arms itself.

Questions

straight answers

How is this different from OneTab or Session Buddy?

OneTab consolidates open tabs into a list to free RAM. Daypack saves named sessions you actually plan to return to — and triggers them via hotkey or schedule, not just a list view. Closer to Workona / Toby workspaces, free and without an account.

Does it send anything to a server?

No. Sessions live in chrome.storage.sync, which follows your Chrome profile across machines automatically. No analytics, no remote config, no account required.

Can I import / export my sessions?

Yes. The settings page has Import and Export buttons — sessions serialize to a plain JSON file. Move them between profiles, back them up, or share a set with a teammate.

Will it stay free?

Yes. Daypack is a free side-project. A vsdev Pro tier may add cross-account sync later, but the local-only experience stays free forever.

Free, forever. Coffee optional.

No account, no tracking, no nag screens. The coffee link in the popup is the only ask — and it’s optional.
