now i also saw that my "mobile" tabs are not on the mac anymore.


i have tried the following:

Like everyone else, exact same problem. Since Big Sur none of the tabs from my other devices will show up in iCloud any longer. They work between the Phone and iPads but nothing shows up on my MacBook Pro, I have to resort to Air Dropping each tab one by one to my MacBook and vice versa. This is a huge inconvenience and drain on productivity. I can't believe Apple has not addressed this bug yet.

It's incredulity disappointing that Apple has not addressed this issue months ago. On Macrumors (https://forums.macrumors.com/threads/icloud-tabs-not-syncing.2266397/page-26) there are 26 pages of posts complaining about the same problem of iCloud Tabs not working. For me, my M1 MacBook Air with Big Sur 11.1, iPad Pro with iPad OS 14.3 and iPhone 12 Pro Max with iOS 14.3 all have no iCloud tabs at all. Similarly "mobile" tabs are not on the mac anymore nor can I see tabs of Mac on any mobile device. Tries all solutions from Apple Support still not solved.


Please please please if anybody at Apple can look at this issue for such a disastrous problem persisting for such a abhorrent long time.
