Raindrop.io Reviews

Summary: In conclusion, if features of this app and the features of Tabmanager.io were combined, the app would be PERFECT.
I am going to purchase the "Pro" version, hoping that these missing functions will be implemented soon. All around a superb app.............A++++++

Positive: I have been using the app for about 5 months now. This app is so far the best one out there. I have tried Skeema, Tabmanager.io, Session Buddy, Note GPT Manager etc. This app has so many more useful features. (synching, icons, nested folders, drag&drop etc.). However, there are some features and functions that are missing that would make this a 5-star app.

Negative: Here are the features and functions that are needed/missing:

Each open window does not show by itself in the app. I have 6 open windows with many tabs, and NONE of the windows or tabs show in the Raindrop app anywhere (except in the "all bookmarks" list, but not sub-sorted into each window where the bookmarks/tabs are located. There should be a "sort" by "open windows option). None of my open windows show up in the app, all of the open windows show up in the other apps I have used, but not in this app. How do I save tabs from each separate open window into a new collection/folder? How do you add tabs (or groups of tabs) from current open session windows to a collection or a nested/sub-folder? How to save the tabs in a current open window (session), to a "collection", if they are not even visible because the open window is not showing anywhere in the app? Why does the app not have a menu column/list for separate "open browser windows"? (see Tabmanager.io) There should be a way to show all of the content of open session windows along with all the content of saved session windows in the main "list view" screen. (needs a "session history" menu), so new current session tabs and groups can be dragged and dropped into previous saved session windows collections. Active session browser windows are not offered to merge with a saved session window in the left menu box (to update the folder/window), for example, move all my saved YouTube tabs into a saved window of choice. Being able to merge current windows into a prior collection project window would be a great feature. (this is possible in Tabmanager.io app). I do not see a "merging function" option in the app.

Also, there no "save tab groups " option that even shows up in the app. I also do not see any way to add individual " tab groups" to any collections/groups/nested folders. There should be a way to save "tabbed groups" to a "nested folder" in a collection? I think this is a critical missing feature. also, it would be great if you could add a function to add "tab groups" to the "add tabs list" to the pop-up box menu. I think that would solve the issue. I would think the app would have this function integrated by now.

There is no way to save a range or group of "highlighted selected tabs", ("shift + click" or "crtl + shift" a group of tabs next to each other) (ie. save (3 tabs), without saving all (17) of the tabs in the address bar.) The app wants to save every tab in the bar. Right now, I can only save each tab one at a time in a collection. There needs to be more options on saving tabs in the tutorial. (Developer reply: Unfortunately, highlighted tabs list is not detected yet. Will be improved in future updates. 7/19/2024).
What is the difference between the clipper and mini app?

I do not see any way to change the color of the group names (or collection font colors or sizes), so they stand out. Right now, they are only a "dull" gray color, very hard to see it. Also, customer tech support could be improved, sometimes there is no response.
