I accidentally closed all but one of my tabs in Safari on my iPad. I had over 400 tabs.
I pressed the + button and retrieved 200 of them. That's all it will allow me to recover.
Is there any way to retrieve the rest of them?
It's a lot of research and info I don't want to loose. Yes, I should have saved the bookmarks, but didn't :-(
Thank you in advance for the help!

I was very careful in how I recovered the 200 tabs.
After an online search, I read that some users encountered that same problem, that Safari will only let you recover 200 tabs, not the 400+ I lost.
I was hoping that perhaps there was a workaround so that I could recover everything else.
I open to any suggestions!
Thanks!!!!

Don’t panic.
You may find this article to be helpful in understanding some of the frequent difficulties encountered by users new to iPadOS Safari - along with some of Safari’s more esoteric features and quirks:
iPadOS - Safari - Lost Windows, Lost Tabs… - Apple Community
Insofar as possible, I hope to have distilled most of the frequent problems reported here - and documented procedures, strategies [and where needed] some useful workarounds.
I that you find this to be helpful in resolving any issues that you may be experiencing.
Whilst iPadOS Safari is actually very robust at protecting open sessions/tabs, if closed tabs are not recoverable using the procedures I have described in the linked article, then they’re effectively lost. Your ability to recover only a subset of tabs would suggest that your earlier recovery attempts may have compounded the problem.
The ability to reopen/recover a closed Safari window and associated tab is finite; subsequent actions have significant impact on this ability.
If direct recovery of a closed Safari window has been lost, your remaining option may be to review your Safari Page History.
Hello Lotus Pilot,
Thank you for the quick response.
I read your post. However, I am only able to restore 200 of my 400+ tabs.
Any suggestions on how to recover the rest of the tabs?
With thanks.
