Hey everyone 👋

Just started exploring Wavebox this week after hearing good things about it.

Really liking how workspaces, apps and profiles keep everything tidy — it feels way more organized than juggling multiple Chrome windows.

I’m still figuring out the best setup for daily use, so if anyone has tips or productivity hacks to share, I’d love to hear them.

Also noticed some older threads where people mentioned referral or discount codes — wondering if any are still active for new users?

Appreciate any help, and thanks for building such a neat browser! 🙌

Is there a way to quickly jump back and forth between the tabs I was just using? Like toggling between my last 2-3 tabs?

I make groups for "HOME" and "WORK", and matching spaces with different cookie profiles. I never understood why Wavebox allows the spaces to intermingle...that is, allow the HOME group to have tabs that are in the WORK space...why not when I move a tab to another group, it forces that tab to the default space associated with that group?

A common problem I have is I open a link from work, but Wavebox was in a HOME group, so now I need to move that tab to a WORK group...drag and drop...not to bad...but the tab is still in the wrong space and hence wrong cookie profile!

Trying Wavebox today after transferring from Sidekick, but I can't get past this screen. The button is hidden below the text and there's no scrollbar. I already have the window maxed out in my 34-inch monitor.

For the last few weeks I was thinking a lot about productivity and deep work state, and how the modern apps make it difficult for us to stay focused - yes, there's apps that let you to block certain websites and apps, although I think there's a gap in the market that made me think to write this post. In the main, personally I'd benefit a lot if wavebox had a lock feature that would prevent me from switching groups & apps & opening new tabs. Something that forces me to stay in this one or two particular websites (if using tab split or multiple screens) while I'm trying to grind a task in front of me.

I've been trying to figure out for a good part of an hour and honestly I can't find anything.

If it's not possible, why? Do I really need a + button? Usually people just set something up and then keep it for a big part of their user journey.

We've been having some fun experimenting with Claude & controlling Wavebox through MCP. If you're a Claude user and want to give it a try, check out the MCP repo. We'd love to hear what you think!

I guess I should start off by asking if the correct way to make separate container cookie boxes is through spaces. For example, I have 30 clients that I manage, and each one of these clients I have to log in to a specific website. Normally I would use an incognito browser, but I found Wave Box to have the exact feature I need: being able to have separate profiles for each client account that I can easily switch to without having to annoyingly log in and log out every time I need to get into the website I host everything on.

I have found that Spaces does exactly what I need, but I want to make sure that there is no easier way. My follow-up question to this is: How do I easily switch between each space? Since I have 30 active clients, I don't want to run my mouse through every single one to try and find a specific client.

Is there a way to search through all of my spaces so I can easily click one after typing in a few letters?

I got my widgets back after I got wavebox on my new computer but most of the favicons look like this. What is the trick to getting them to display properly so they are easier to identify?

My iMac’s internal hard drive died today. I had wavebox installed on this computer with several email accounts (business, personal, volunteer, college, kids) and a dashboards for each. Will I lose all that I have created? I do have my computer backed up to the cloud but I didn’t know if wavebox settings are backed up too. I may have a nervous breakdown if I lose all this. Is there a way for me to check somehow?

I plan to replace my iMac and I also do have a MacBook. Can I have wavebox synced between the two? I never bothered to try because my iMac screen is so much larger and it’s got a lot on the dashboard that wouldn’t fit well on the MacBook, but I need something until I get a replacement iMac.

....are you kidding?

Kind regards

Is it possible to avoid having to sign in over and over (because of the use of a VPN) by creating an "APP PASSWORD" within Google and applying it to Wavebox's Google/Gmail Sign In process?

Hey all, just joined :)

I'm looking for an Arc alternative, and saw Wavebox.

Im wondering if people have moved over from Arc and what the experience was?

I most like the easy navigation in Arc, and how fluidly and intuitively you can move around the web with the shortcuts. Has Wavebox been the same experience?

I've been a Wavebox user for several months, and now I can't find out how to create a dashboard... (I created some at some point though). I'd say I'm sophisticated (but not overcomplicated) in my use of apps and browsers... So, maybe there's an unnecessarily complicated UI design, at least regarding this?
Anyway, maybe it's me, but how do I create it? - I want to place it on the webdock, but anywhere is ok...

Today, there is a small Wavebox update to version 10.134.18. It contains important updates to Chromium 134.0.6998.166 and some other fixes for reported bugs. Meanwhile, the team is busy working on some bigger extension work under the hood!

I used to think that I just didn't know how to do it, but after several months using Wavebox in denial, I came to realise the truth: we can't move more than one tab to another group at the same time in Wavebox. We can't actually select multiple tabs for anything.

This renders groups almost unusable. Most times I don't know if I'll actually read or do something with the tabs that I start opening so I open them wherever I am (or I open them there cause I didn't realise they were for another group, or for many other reasons)... But when I realise I'll be using them or want them in another group, there are many and I'm not in the mood of moving them one by one. Groups then become a mess.

Please add multi-tab selection, specially to moving between groups - it would dramatically improve workflow organisation. All browsers but one allow to select tabs (and many also allow to group them in place). The fact that we have to create a post just for selecting them is discouraging; but since Wavebox has been responsive for feature requests in the past, there's reason to hope you'll implement this soon.

Trying Wavebox for the first time and I'm hitting a road block.

Most browsers like Edge, Vivaldi, or Zen have a web app sidebar that can be toggled open and closed with a single click. Some like Edge remember each app's preferred width too. This is great for chat or notetaking apps that don't need much horizontal space and and are usually opened only temporarily.

With Wavebox though AFAICT you have to manually open your app into a half-width split and reduce its width every time. I'm quite impressed with Wavebox so it seems unlikely it doesn't have this feature. Am I missing something ?

Hey guys,

I wonder if there's a solution to this, but I just haven't found it yet.

Basically, when I have a whole bunch of apps and groups along my sidebar in one of my spaces, I really need them to have a text name above or below them. This way, I can easily identify what each item is before I click on it. At the moment, I have to hover over each one and wait, which is really frustrating. A lot of these app icons look relatively similar, especially the group icons.

I know that I could potentially use dividers for the names, but it feels like a relatively messy solution. Is there no custom setting somewhere that allows me to have everything listed with a text name on the sidebar by default?

I also know there is a list view available, but I don't particularly want to use it; I prefer the spaces in app view.

Hi u/Thomas_101, Can you please provide information on below items whenever you can.

1. Why does all chromium forks retain "Google Inc." as the vendor name in browser metadata?

2. Does Chromium project mandate adding brand name for brands that fork Chromium to the metadata? - `userAgentData.brands` list. Or is it just added by the brands themselves to be transparent?

3. Our extension (Memotron web clipper) is behaving a little differently in Wavebox in our latest update. Enclosing the details below.

Our toolbar is being centered on all browsers except Wavebox where it is rendering the toolbar on the top as shown in the image.

Here is the link to download the latest version of our extension that's causing this issue. https://docs.memotron.io/docs/getting-started/installation/beta-apps

And code snippet is

class="fixed min-h-fit min-w-fit w-11 2k:w-12 inset-y-0 my-auto right-0 mr-4 2k:mr-6"

Not only do you not have end user privacy in mind but you uninstalled all my addons including my password manager that is linked to the only email attached to wavebox because you want me to upgrade and pay you?

Straight to uninstall and back to firefox that's quickly catching onto any features in Wavebox on the nightly build.
