About this extension
Never lose a filled-out web form again.
Form Guardian automatically saves what you type into web forms in the background and restores it in one click after a browser crash, an accidental tab close, or a network error. It's free, and your form data stays on your device.
How it works
Features
Privacy first
Saved form data lives in your browser's local storage and is never uploaded. Password fields are ignored by design. A free Google sign-in — needed only to keep recovering — only links the extension to your account; it never uploads what you type. You can opt out of anonymous usage analytics and clear all stored data at any time.
Perfect for job applications, support tickets, government forms, long comments, CRM entry, surveys, and multi-page web apps.
