Memory Saver

If you’re experiencing issues with Crelate reloading unexpectedly or interrupting active features (like texting), your browser settings may be the cause.

Some browsers, especially Google Chrome and Microsoft Edge, include performance features that can pause or reload inactive tabs to save memory. This can interfere with how Crelate stays connected.

Why This Happens

Features like Memory Saver (Chrome) or Efficiency Mode (Edge) may:

  • Put inactive tabs to sleep

  • Refresh tabs in the background

  • Interrupt real-time actions like messaging or updates


Recommended Fix (Chrome)

Disable Memory Saver for Crelate Only

This is the preferred option, as it keeps performance benefits for other sites.

  1. Open Chrome Settings

  2. Go to Performance

  3. Find Memory Saver

  4. Under “Always keep these sites active”, click Add

  5. Enter: crelate.com


Alternative Fix (Chrome)

Turn Off Memory Saver Completely

  1. Open Chrome Settings

  2. Go to Performance

  3. Toggle Memory Saver off

Note: This setting may not be available in all versions of Chrome.


Microsoft Edge Users

In Microsoft Edge, a similar feature is called Efficiency Mode.

To prevent issues:

  1. Open Settings

  2. Go to System and Performance

  3. Locate Efficiency Mode or Sleeping Tabs

  4. Add crelate.com to the list of sites that should stay active


Other Browsers

If you're using another browser, look for settings related to:

  • Tab sleeping

  • Performance optimization

  • Background tab management

Disabling these features (or excluding crelate.com) can help maintain a stable connection.
