Browser Tips

CHROME

View tabs from other devices on your New Tab page

One of the most useful features in Chrome, and the other major browsers, is the ability to sync open tabs between devices. This allows you to continue reading a page on your phone or tablet that you’ve just visited on your PC – and vice versa – without needing to search for it or enter its web address.

Provided ‘Open tabs’ is selected in your Sync settings, you can view tabs from other devices in the Chrome desktop browser by clicking the three-dot menu, choosing History and selecting a device. In the Chrome mobile app, tap the three-dot menu followed by ‘Recent tabs’. If no devices are listed,click ‘Manage what you sync’ and either switch on the ‘Open tabs’ option or ‘Sync everything’.
