Safari needs a way to actively sync tabs between iCloud devices. I'm not sure how it syncs now, but it does not work correctly. On desktop Safari, I have tabs from my phone that I visited six months ago.
The only solution to sync them correctly, as far as I know, is to log in/out of iCloud on each device.
Edit: this works - rm ~/Library/Safari/CloudTabs*
- tomaskafka 5y agoThat's just a subset of general iCloud syncing problems - I have these kind of problems with iCloud Drive, Notes, Podcasts, Music ...
- btmoore 5y agoTab groups are super reliable. It's strange that device syncing broke right around the same time that tab groups came out.
- vehemenz 5y agoIndeed they are. Thanks for clarifying that. I use a group called "Phone" to work around the syncing problems I've had.
- jghn 5y agoI found tab groups to be the opposite of super reliable until I read the workaround was to disable device synching. Pro: Tab groups are now super reliable Con: I no longer have device synching

- vehemenz 5y agoEdit 2: Now my tab groups are not syncing correctly. I have a tab open in one of my groups, and it keeps re-opening no matter how many times. Apple really needs to dogfood their own browser if they want to get serious about fixing these bugs.
