CONTINUED… Manage Tab Groups in Safari

-

Every time you open a new tab within a Tab Group, it is saved to the group automatica­lly — there is no need to manually save the group. Likewise, you can delete a tab from the group by simply closing it and it will be removed.

4 Add and remove tabs 7 Rename and reorder

To rename a Tab Group, open the sidebar menu, ≈-click a Tab Group and click Rename or double-click the Tab Group name and type. Once done, press ®. You can also change your groups’ order by dragging and dropping them.

10 Copy and share tabs

To copy and paste your tabs into another app such as Notes or Mail, ≈-click a Tab Group and click Copy Links. At the bottom of the menu is a list of every tab contained inside the group. Click a tab and it will be opened in Safari.

To delete a Tab Group, ≈-click it in the sidebar menu and click Delete. This will close every open tab in the group rather than ungroup them. To delete the group but keep its tabs open, move them from the current Tab Group to another.

If you forget which tabs are contained in a group, open the sidebar menu. To the right of the group’s name is an icon that looks like four squares. Click it, or ≈-click the group and click Show Tab Overview to see a preview.

5 Delete a Tab Group 8 Tab Overview 11 Sync to your devices

Any Tab Groups you have saved on your Mac will by synced to your other Apple devices. On an iPhone running iOS 15, for example, open Safari, tap the Tabs button, then tap ‘x Tabs’ (where ‘x’ is the number of open tabs) and choose a Tab.

With the sidebar closed, you will see the name of the current Tab Group in the top-left corner of the Safari window. Click it to move to a different Tab Group. Alternativ­ely, open the sidebar menu and click a different Tab Group to switch to it.

6 Change to a new group 9 Tab previews

From here, you can click any of the displayed tabs and Safari will switch to it. Each tab has a small ‘X’ button that lets you close the tab. After the last tab is a large square with a ‘+’ inside it — click it to open a new tab inside this Tab Group.

12 And back to your Mac

This works the other way, too. As long as your other devices are logged in with the same Apple ID, any tabs you add to a group on your iPhone or iPad will be added to the relevant Tab Group in macOS Monterey.
