# Firefox’s Tab Notes Feature Feels Genuinely Useful (For Me, At Least)

**[omg\! ubuntu\!](https://daily.dev/sources/omgub)** · 3 min read · 37 upvotes · 4 comments

## Summary

Firefox is testing a Tab Notes feature that lets users attach small text notes to individual browser tabs. The feature helps users remember why they kept tabs open and is useful for research, shopping comparisons, or tracking context. It's currently available as an experimental feature in Firefox stable/beta (via about:config flag) and enabled by default in Nightly builds. This joins other upcoming Firefox improvements like Split Tabs and customizable keyboard shortcuts.
