Main Features

Usage This extension does not clean data automatically until you enable "Auto-clean". This gives you the chance to add sites to the WhiteList.

  1. Add the sites you want to keep site data in the WhiteList (permanently) or GreyList (until Browser restart)
  2. Toggle "Auto-clean" in the popup or "Automatic cleaning" in the settings
  3. Watch those unused site data disappear :)
