Open Tabs is a live list. As you open, close, and jump between tabs, the view keeps up on its own.
Where it lives
Open Tabs is in both surfaces. In the card and side panel it is the first of three tabs along the top: Open Tabs, Workspaces and Tasks. Its heading shows how many tabs you have open, with Organize and, when there are duplicates, a close-duplicates button beside it. On the dashboard, click Open Tabs at the top of the sidebar, where it shows a live count of how many tabs you have. The whole main area becomes the list, with room to breathe.Make the list read your way
Two settings shape the list on both surfaces, both under Settings → Open Tabs view. Group by window is on by default. The list gets a divider per Chrome window, This window and Window 2 and so on. A private window reads (Incognito) after its name. Turn it off for one flat All open tabs list. Click a window’s divider, or its arrow, to fold that window’s tabs away. Sort tabs by offers Window order (tab strip) to mirror the order of your real tabs, Most recently active to float what you touched last, or Site name (A–Z) to group by site. A third setting in the same place, Keep the original tab open when dragging to a workspace, changes what dragging does rather than how the list looks. See Moving tabs.What you can do with a tab
Click any row and you go straight to that tab, even if it is in another window. Hover a row and a set of quick actions appears:
The two save buttons only show once you have at least one workspace.
Two small markers help you triage. A green dot means that tab is front-and-centre in its window. A green check means it is already saved in the workspace you are viewing.
On the dashboard you can drag any row onto a workspace in the sidebar to file the tab there. Hold ⌥ Option (Alt on Windows and Linux) as you let go to copy instead of move, and you can undo any drop for ten seconds afterwards. In the card and side panel, your workspaces are on another tab, so use the row’s Save to workspace button instead. See Moving tabs.
To take several at once, hover a row and a small square appears where its icon was. Click it to start selecting, then ⌘-click (Ctrl-click) for one more row or Shift-click for a run of them. Drag any selected row and the whole selection goes together.
While you are selecting, the heading is replaced by a bar reading N selected, with four actions and a way out:
Whole-window moves
When grouping by window is on, each window’s divider carries two bigger levers. On the dashboard they are words. In the side panel they are small icons that show on hover, each with a tooltip. Save all saves every tab in that window into a brand-new workspace. In the side panel its tooltip reads Save all tabs in this window to a workspace. A small dialog, Save window to a workspace, suggests a name, and clicking Create & save captures the whole window in one go. This is the one to use when the window is the project. Suspend others puts every eligible background tab in that window to sleep at once, leaving your current tab awake. In the side panel its tooltip reads Suspend all background tabs in this window. Private windows have no Suspend others.Chrome tab groups
Tabs you have grouped in Chrome show up as a heading with the group’s name and colour, and its tabs sit underneath. Click the heading’s arrow to fold the group away. The heading’s ⋯ menu, or a right-click on it, has Rename, a row of colours, Ungroup and Close group. You can also drag a group. Drag its heading up or down to reorder it, or onto another window’s divider to move the whole group to that window. Drag a tab above or below another tab, or onto a group’s heading, to move it in your tab strip and into that group. To make a group from tabs you already have, select them and click Group tabs on the bar that appears. Chrome unpins a tab when it joins a group, so if your selection includes pinned tabs, a box reads Group a pinned tab (or Group pinned tabs) and asks you to confirm with Group and unpin it (or Group and unpin them). Groups show as headings when Sort tabs by is Window order (tab strip). In the other two sorts the tabs are spread out, so each tab wears a coloured dot and its group’s name instead. Your workspaces keep their tab groups too. See Workspaces.Organize with AI
In the card and side panel, Organize sits in the Open Tabs heading. Click it and eggz reads your open tabs across every window and proposes a tidy-up in an AI Organize box with three modes:
Organize needs you to be signed in to eggz and at least 3 open tabs. If either is missing, a short message tells you so.
