You can now preview Chrome’s new tab organizing feature in Canary
Organize Tabs will automatically group similar tabs in your window
When you’re browsing the web for an extended period of time, you’re bound to rack up several tabs. The end result is frustration when you need to backtrack. Google has seemingly been aware of this all-too-common problem, and it appears to be developing an automatic workaround for Chrome users. A new feature called Organize Tabs has popped up in Chrome Canary 120, and it might prevent this headache once and for all.
Whether you are a student, educator, professional, or regular user, you may sometimes run into a situation where you have dozens of tabs open in Google Chrome. Instead of finding a relevant tab with a tiny site favicon, pin important tabs and categorize relevant tabs under a single group in Google Chrome.
If you're a heavy user of Google Chrome, tab groups are likely a godsend for you, but the current implementation is far from comprehensive. As it turns out, Google is already working on improving the desktop experience and we can already get a glimpse of what's to come thanks to a new Canary flag.
Apple steals not one, but two Chrome features for the iPhone's iOS 15 Safari redesign
Swipe to switch tabs plus a very familiar tab switcher
Apple claimed at WWDC this year that Safari is the "world's fastest browser" — note that not everyone agrees with that, and if the company's claim is true, it's at the cost of not supporting the modern internet and PWA-hostile policies, but you do you Apple. Separately from speed-ranking titles, Safari is also stealing two pretty handy features from Chrome on mobile platforms. As part of a cross-platform redesign that includes iOS 15, Safari will pick up Chrome's swipe-to-switch-tabs feature, plus Chrome's grid tab view. Safari is also getting tab grouping like Chrome, but it sounds like the iPhone will skip that party.
