Pro Tip: You can also use the “Bookmark all tabs” option to save many tab groups and even loose tabs simultaneously! All of these grouped tabs will automatically be placed into a Bookmark folders by the name of the Tab Group they came from, so all you’ll need to do is to fill out the parent folder name found in the “Name” text box of the pop-up dialog. Here’s the important part – whatever you do, don’t click the “New folder” button on the bottom-left even though it may be tempting to do so. Once the dialog box appears and asks you where you’d like to save all of these tabs collectively, just choose the Bookmark bar for now. Pro Tip: You can also quickly bookmark all tabs at the same time by tapping the “Ctrl + Shift + D” shortcut on your keyboard. From there, you’ll see a “Bookmark all tabs” option. Then, with no additional tabs open that are outside of the group, click the vertical three dots “more” menu at the top-right of the Chrome browser and hover over “Bookmarks”. Once you do, just drag in a few additional tabs for testing purposes. The first thing you’re going to want to do is to call up a few websites you want to save for later on Chrome for desktop and right-click one tab to choose the “Add tab to new group” option. Unbeknownst to most people, there’s a contextual menu item on any and all Bookmark folders that allows you to restore everything in that folder as a Tab Group. Note: Any Tab Group you close does appear in the Tab Search drop-down as a part of your Chrome History, but I’ve found that these quickly disappear forever if you’re doing a lot of browsing (History doesn’t keep these grouped!), so I don’t believe this is a reliable way to recall Tab Groups unless Google adds them to Chrome Journeys in the near future!īecause Chrome’s Tab Groups and Chrome Bookmarks have pretty much become one and the same, we’re going to be going this route. We’re going to jerry-rig Tab Groups and unofficially store them for recall using the built-in Chrome Bookmarks system! It does require a bit of extra work, but I find that it’s worth it, personally, and depending on your need for Tab Groups and your tolerance for a bit of elbow grease, you may too. Today, I’m going to tell you how to do exactly that, but without Google’s officially incoming “Tab Group Save” system since it’s not yet been rolled out, as stated. Google does have a feature in the works that will allow you to save Tab Groups, and they’ve even begun showing up on the browser’s bookmark bar in Chrome Canary once the appropriate “Tab Groups Save” developer flag is enabled, so completely ridding yourself of them without losing your progress is on its way, but it’s just not widely accessible yet. Unfortunately, I’ve seen no reliable way to date to save these, close them, and recall them at another time. As an organization fanatic, I’ve become obsessed with Google Chrome’s Tab Groups feature since it was released.
