  • Chrome for Android could soon bring back the option to share tab groups.
  • Google is working on a new version of the feature that adds a Share button to tab groups.
  • The feature is currently in development, and it will likely roll out with a future update.

When Google first introduced Tab groups in Chrome for Android, the feature included an option that let users share tab groups with others. However, Google removed it in a subsequent release sometime in 2021. The option no longer exists in the browser app and you can’t even enable it with flags, but Google appears to be working on a new implementation that could arrive with a future update.

Previously, you could access the option to share tab groups by selecting a tab group and opening the three-dot menu. Google is now working on a dedicated button for the feature to make it easier to access, according to code sleuth Leopeva64 on X. This new Share button will appear at the top of the tab group next to the buttons to add tabs and open the three-dot menu.
