This vid has come up at the RIGHT time! Thanks so so very much Simpletivity! You ROCK!!! 💌💌💌
You are so welcome! How do you plan to use these Saved Tab Groups?
Great tip Scott. You ALWAYS bring great content!
I'm so glad you liked this tip. Thanks for watching!
Group tabs will NEVER replace bookmarks for many reasons. So, use groups tabs for most used sites you like, not youtube cause autoplay, but don't delete your bookmarks at all like this man said in this video.
Scott, your tips just blow me away! G-Productivity is exactly what I need! Thanks so much.
I'm so glad that you found this useful. All the best as you get the most out of this feature!
This tip is genius. Been using it the last three days and it makes me happy every time
Thanks so much for sharing your experience! Any other advice you would give others now that you are using it?
@@Simpletivityit's actually given me recognition of how many unnecessary tabs I was keeping open 'just in case'. I set up a an additional group called 'Occasional' which separates out from the everyday essentials groups and keeps both my browser and my mind clearer.
That sounds like a great idea. Thanks for sharing!
Thanks so much Scott for teaching me about Chrome Tab groups! Now I have different groups for different tasks, and open up different groups in different browser windows, which really helps me focus and avoid distractions while I'm working on the task at hand.
That sounds like a great method! Thanks so much for sharing.
*_Thank you so much for sharing, Scott. Will apply this immediately._*
You are so welcome. Let me know how it goes and if you have any additional tips!
Hey Scott, helpful video. Suggestion: Add a caveat that if you click on the tab "X" to close the tab, you're actually removing the tab from the group. If you do that for al of the group tabs, the group disappears forever. I learned this the hard way! 😖😖
That's a very good thing to point out. Thanks for sharing!
It distroys the whole purpose of grouping. Bookmarks never go away if I accidently close the tab.
Dear Scott, I love you. -Ax
Thanks a lot! I didn't know tab groups could be saved. Really very useful.
Yes, this is really changing the way I browse and make more effective use of my tabs.
@@Simpletivity Thanks again!
Thank you so much for all your tips, I love your channel! Greetings from the Dom. Rep.
You are so welcome! Thanks for taking the time to share your comments.
Brilliant! Love it!
So glad to hear that!
thanks a bunch for this one Scott! I'd seen the feature, saved a group, but when relaunched Chrome it was gone. I didn't realize it went to the Toolbar ... 🙄 ...
You're welcome, Bill. Yes, that one distinction with this feature makes all the difference!
uff so amazing this...!!!
bookmarks + folder is still the best. just put all tabs in folders. It saves a lot of memory usages
Thanks so much for sharing your feedback.
Excellent! Thanks!
You're very welcome!
Thank you for the tip; I'd seen that "save group" toggle, but I didn't know what it does (probably because I always hide my bookmark bar)
You are very welcome. This might be a good reason to reorganize your bookmarks bar to get the most out of this feature!
Yes, for sure
Thank you sir 🌐
You are very welcome!
Hi Scott, thx for you video. Is it possible to open Google and the see the Tab groups at a glance. So you don't have to open up a new tab to see them?
Other than having them listed in your Bookmarks Bar, I'm not aware of another way to view the inside of a Tab Group without expanding it.
Love your videos - so well explained - quick and concise. I was very excited about this. I set up three tab groups - fantastic. HOWEVER, if you're in a tab and you start to surf, then Chrome saves the last place you surfed to in your tab group. Later, when I open up my "Productivity" tab for example, it has a random book website I went to via a surfing session instead of my Trello workflow. The worst part is that, after setting up my tab groups and feeling ridiculously excited, I deleted the sites in those new tab groups from my bookmarks bar. Now it's a mission to find them. Have I gone about this the wrong way? What have I missed? Please help!
It's true that these groups are dynamic and can change based on where you browse to if within a tab. Therefore, I recommend only using these tabs for specific sites and use other tabs for surfing. In addition, you may want to keep some of your bookmarks just for reference.
Thanks. Will definitely be saving my bookmarks again. The tabs tool is neat though. Thanks letting us all know these things. Really interesting as well as helpful.
You are very welcome!
Does anyone know what the shortcut key is to collapse or expand a group tab? I find it a hassle to keep on clicking the grouped tab whenever I want to go to the individual tab within a grouptab. Thanks
Don't make the mistake and put youtube in a tab group with a current video open and running.
It will stay in this tab group for ever and ever. And the video will start playing instantly as soon as you open the tab group. If you are multi device user with Chrome sync on it will definitely play automatically on every single device you have, where Chrome is installed. Gosh, I liked the idea to put UA-cam in a social tab group, but I had to remove it and leave it as a single tab.
Edit: And if you are used to links that you are going to open within a tab group - this may be a catastrophy as well. Opening a link from a tab group may cause opening the link on all your devices. And even if you quickly close the new tab, it may reappear.

Great but when you reopen chrome the tab groups are always all open and you have no more space ! is that possible that they are closed when you reopen chrome ? Many thanks in advance !!!
Thank you! I have saved many groups, however I would like to sort them alphabetically like I did the standalone bookmarks. Is that possible?
You can always drag and drop them into any order you like. I hope that helps!
Thank you! 😊
Thanks for the video - my groups just vanish - flags set or not. Just plain idiotic- but there it is.
todays sponsor of the video should’ve been Arc browser 😂
How long have you been using Arc? What do you like the most about it?
It only allows a few saved group tabs before it hides them behind a dropdown
Yes, I think about 4 or 5 is the limit before it will group the additional ones together.
@@Simpletivity I hope they allow us to move the divider ourselves
Yes, that would be a helpful option.
My saved group got lost after opening it once.
