One of the most widely used browsers out there is Google Chrome. It is also accessible on Windows, Android, and iOS. The majority of users still favor using Google Chrome as their main browser. Countless tabs are open at once for the millions and billions of Chrome users who use the browser globally. But keeping track of all those stored tabs might be a challenge. The Chromium development team has added a new saved tabs feature to cut down on this specific issue. It was a feature that made it simple to manage the saved tabs.

Later updates made saved tab groups visible in the bookmarks bar, making it simpler to locate them. Its serious shortcoming, however, hindered it from becoming as useful as it may have been. The saved tabs would all disappear whenever you updated or restarted the browser, which was a serious problem. And if the saved tabs are gone after an update or restart, offering this option really makes no sense. But thankfully, the developers have addressed the problem and found a workable solution.

Devs have introduced a new Sync bridge which allows the saved tabs to be saved in the local storage. Therefore, if Chrome gets restarted or updated, the saved tabs would be accessible even after that. A well-known Redditor who follows Chrome-related news found the commit. However, they draw attention to the fact that during a fresh browsing session, saved tab groups can not display in the exact same order as they were initially saved. Chrome devs are already working on a fix and anyway, something is better than nothing.

Though the Reddit user hypothesises that the Chromium team may decide to integrate it with versions 108 or 109, potentially making it accessible to a larger audience of users, the feature currently seems on track to be a part of version 110 of the browser. As a result of this change, more users will undoubtedly benefit from stored tab groups more quickly because tabs can now persist across many browser sessions.
