How to migrate your iPhone Safari tabs to Chrome

By Clifford P on May 18, 2020

Whichever method, you’ll need iCloud Tabs enabled, an iOS device (iPhone/iPad) and a Mac.

Just a few

If you only want to open a small number of iPhone tabs on your Mac’s Safari, just click your Mac Safari’s cloud icon and pick the tab to open. A similar alternative is the free CloudyTabs app.

Many, many tabs

Did you find out the hard way that you can only have 500 tabs open on iOS’ Safari?

Here’s a reliable way to get your open iOS tabs to your Mac’s Chrome bookmarks:

  1. Have no bookmarks in Safari to start (recommended, not required — just makes it easier to see what was changed)
  2. Add all iPhone open tabs as a folder of bookmarks (long-press the Bookmarks icon on iPhone Safari to see this option)
  3. Your iOS bookmarks will sync to your Mac Safari bookmarks
  4. Once that happens, go to Mac Safari > File > Export Bookmarks
  5. Go to Chrome > Import Bookmarks and Settings (the auto-importer from Safari may not work for iCloud bookmarks)
  6. Go to Chrome > Bookmarks > Bookmark Manager > verify the Safari export got imported successfully
  7. Go to Mac Safari > Bookmarks > Edit Bookmarks > delete the folder
  8. Long-press the Tabs icon on iPhone and close ALL tabs (scary but feels good!)
  9. Use whichever variety of Chrome tools/extensions to do what you will (open all links within a specific bookmark folder, export to text, etc.)
