Safari Tabs of iOS devices not appearing on Mac

Hi,


I have a MBP running MacOS 11.1 Big Sur. Since the update to the new OS, I don’t see any Safari tabs open in my iPhone or iPad on my Mac. However, the Mac Safari tabs can be seen on the iPhone and the iPad, and respective tabs of the two devices can be seen on either. I have logged in and out of iCloud on my Mac, but it has made no difference. I would appreciate a solution


MacBook Pro 13″, macOS 11.1

Hello Rudrojit,


We understand that Safari tabs on your iOS device aren't syncing to your Mac.


Make sure that these are the steps that you're using to set up and use iCloud Tabs.


You should also make sure that your iOS device is using iOS 13 or later.


If the tabs still won't sync, force quit Safari on your iOS device and on your Mac.

Then reopen Safari on your iOS device, then your Mac and see if they sync correctly.


You should also make sure that Private Browsing is not enabled on the iOS device or the Mac.


If the issue persists, contact support: Get Support


Cheers!
