Frequently Asked Questions
Is local always more secure?
Local reduces vendor sync risk but you still protect the device. Use disk encryption and careful sharing.
What about Chrome profile sync?
NexaTabs workspace data is local to the extension storage model; still review your browser sync settings separately.
Can I share a workspace with a teammate?
There is no cloud share. You can export JSON carefully if sharing is required.
Does Accounts improve privacy between logins?
It isolates cookies per Accounts workspace on many sites, which helps separate identities. Site support varies and it is not perfect on every site.
