My Open Safari Tabs Have Disappeared!

My open tabs on Safari disappeared overnight. Is there any way that I can recover them?

My problem is with disappearing Safari tabs on my iPhone 8. After running this by my nephew, I discovered that this had happened because I had too many tabs open, but that the missing tabs had been saved. This is what I did to recover them:


  1. Open Safari.
  2. Open a new tab by tapping + in the lower left corner of the screen.
  3. This opened a new tab showing my Favorites.
  4. One of my Favorites was labeled Saved Tabs.
  5. I tapped Saved Tabs, and it opened to reveal my missing tabs. I only had to tap each tab to reopen it.
