Drag a tab from your active tabs list or some other group and drop it over the green area which appears. A new group is created with the tab you have selected. You can create as many groups as you want.
You can create a group using ‘Choose Save to a new group’ in the Active tabs menu. This closes all the tabs and places them in the new group.
Groups can be created using the Edit menu by choosing Create new group from this menu.
However, the easiest way to create a new group is using a keyboard shortcut Ctrl + G, after you add the extension to your browser.
