Why isn't Chrome syncing from all my devices?

When I am on my iPad or iPhone, using Chrome, I am not seeing the open tabs that I have on my Macbook in Chrome? I have chosen Sync Everything, so I am not sure why this is not working.

My apologies for the caps, but I had not received a reply to my post, and did not know how to prompt an answer. If there is a better way, I am all for it.


Thank you for responding to my post.


I am now looking at both my iPad and iPhone settings. The Chrome tabs on the iPhone show up fine, it is just on the iPad that I can't see the open tabs. So, then I look at my Settings on both mobile devices.


The Chrome settings on the iPhone, under Allow Chrome to Access, show Location (set to never), Microphone, Siri & Search, and Cellular Data turned on.


The Chrome settings on the iPad, under Allow Chrome to Access, only show two options, Location (set to never) and Siri & Search.


I will delete the app from the iPad and re-install.

It's a user-to-user forum. People respond if they see your post and they have an idea. If you want to bump up your post, a simple "Does anyone have any ideas?" would be considered more polite.


Best of luck!

ANYONE AVAILABLE TO HELP ME?

There is no need to shout. This is not live chat. This is a user-to-user support forum.


If you tap on the three dots in the lower right corner of a window in Chrome, then Recent Tabs, do you not see the tabs from your Mac? If not, I'd suggest deleting the app and re-installing it. If that doesn't help, contact Google.
