iOS 18 Safari tabs not syncing via iCloud

Whenever opening a new page in Safari, open tabs that were closed on other devices still show under the open iCloud tabs. The only way to remedy this so far has been to turn off iCloud syncing with Safari and then back on.

Also those iCloud open Safari tabs on the Start page are ridiculously large compared to the previous text versions that were condensed properly. There needs be an option to have text only instead of a small page preview next to the text, which takes up a large amount of screen real estate.

I’m here not to answer but to say I’m having exactly the same issue. Used to mostly work fine. Now my iPhone can see tabs from iPad , but not vice versa, and none from my MacBook. Rebooting and turning off iCloud tabs did nothing. I’m in Spain. I updated two days ago and they were working on iOS 18, but today stopped. 🤷🏻‍♀️🤷🏻‍♀️

so frustrating.
