Thank you fissaj - your trick worked - the tab group is really annoying if you dont want it but your trick worked for me in deleting the tab groups I accidentally created. Apple did a terrible job on the tab group design.

Similar questions
- If I open a new "tab group" on Safari v. 15, where do the existing tabs go? It looks like what happens is that all my existing tabs are closed and a new window opens. What if I want to go back to the tabs I had open already? 1054 1
- New Tab Group button missing in Safari 15.5 Safari 15.5 The "New Tab Group" button is missing in Safari. 496 1
- Tab Groups don't work I think I could really use Tab Groups, but they don't work. I've tried several ways of using them. The web sites lock and you can't open them. I can't delete one site from the over view. It does not delete the one I want to delete. It picks another one and deletes that. Sometimes the tabs in the group just disapear Often the over view just doesn't work. I can't add sites to an already existing Tab Group. Just won't do it. Be nice if we could get this unfunctional feature off Safari and go back to the old format. 519 2

Hi briannafromwherever, I had the same issue as you. No option to delete from this "Tab Group Favorites" view. Although I noticed this little thing that solved it.
Go "back" using the arrow next to Bookmarks. That brought me to the "true" tab view (not the favorites view). And voila, there is a delete option from there.
All the best!

Good afternoon DeleteTabGroupinSafari,
You do not have to organize tabs into groups. You can delete any tab groups you've already created and not use the feature. Here is a link to provide feedback regarding this new Safari features to Apple:

The others in this thread are correct, we can't get rid of tab groups, I have tried deleting the tabs in the tab group, I have tried everything I could find. These are the only options. What do we do!?
Sep 28, 2022 4:20 PM in response to justin_900
Could NOT delete "Tab Group Favorites" with your suggestion.
I can delete other tabs & groups. I want to make "Tab Group Favorites" Go Away, forever! I already have a "Favorites."
Editing/managing Safari bookmarks is the most arcane, ****-poorly designed/programed aspect of the Mac OS.
Why should anyone have to use "Edit Bookmarks" and then use the sidebar controls.

If you open the sidebar in Safari (icon to the right of the green circle in upper left corner) you'll find a list of Tab Groups. Hover over one and a circle with 3 dots will appear. Click on that for Tab Group options, including Delete.

Yeah, it's not straightforward at all. Glad this worked out for you. (First time I have resolved anyone's problem online ;-). I am generally the answer seeker. But this one is impossible to find, so I felt compelled to provide this :-))

One of the coolest, most recent Safari features is Tab Groups – Apple redesigned the way we can organize and personalize our Safari browsers. Sure, Tab Groups aren’t precisely a never-seen-before feature, but it’s great news that we can finally use it in Safari instead of relying on other browsers.
What’s great about this feature is that you can use it on Mac, iPad, and even your iPhone! And thanks to iCloud, anything you do on one device will automatically appear on all your other devices as well.
Before you jump into Tab Groups, here are a few things you should know first.
What Are Tab Groups?
The name is pretty self-explanatory, but it’s a new Safari feature that lets you create and group many different tabs into one batch.
They’re basically folders where you can store tabs and access them later.
That way, you can load up your shopping websites whenever you want or create a tab group for your work setup, so you don’t have to bother reopening the same tabs every time.
This feature is exclusive to Safari on iOS 15, iPadOS 15, and macOS Monterey. As soon as you update your device, you’ll be able to access tab groups in Safari, amongst other cool features .
Where Can You Find Your Tab Groups
On Mac, your Tab Groups will be automatically saved on the sidebar menu. All you need to do is tap on the sidebar button on the top left corner of your Safari Browser. You’ll see a list of your Tab Groups, your Bookmarks, and your Reading list too.
If you’re on iPhone, you can see your Tab Groups after you press the Tab bar at the bottom of your screen. You might need to tap the Tabs button on the bottom right corner of your screen if you’re on a website.
How to Create a New Tab Group
There are many ways for you to create a new Tab Group, and it doesn’t matter if you’re on iPhone, iPad, or Mac. You can create brand new tab groups or create a tab group with tabs you already have.
How to Create New Tab Groups on Mac
![remove tab groups from safari Create a new Group Tab Safari on Mac](https://cdn.idropnews.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/09/10114720/Create-a-new-Group-Tab-Safari-on-Mac.jpg)
- Open Safari .
- Click the down arrow on the top left corner, next to the sidebar button.
- Click New Empty Tab Group or New Tab Group with x tabs .
- This will automatically open the sidebar menu. If you want, add a name to your Tab Group, but it’s not necessary.
How to Create New Tab Groups on iPhone or iPad

- Tap on the Tab bar at the bottom of your screen.
- Tap New Empty Tab Group or New Tab Group from Tabs .

- After you enter a name, tap Save .
And that’s it. You just created your first Tab Group. Remember that if you choose New Tab Group with x tabs, all the tabs that you have open on Safari will become part of the same Tab Group.
How to Move a Tab to a Different Tab Group
Adding tabs to your Tab Group is simple: All you need to do is open a new tab when you’re in the Tab Group you want. But what if you made a mistake and you want to move it to a different Tab Group? Well, it’s just as easy. Here’s what you need to do:
How to Move a Tab to a Different Tab Group on Mac
![remove tab groups from safari Move a tab to a tab group Safari Mac](https://cdn.idropnews.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/09/10114956/Move-a-tab-to-a-tab-group-Safari-Mac.jpg)

- Right-click or Control-click on the tab you want to move.

As of right now, there is no way to undo it, so you’ll need to make sure you’re not deleting a tab that has something important.

Safari now features tab groups that organize your browser tabs in groups you can label and move around. It helps you reduce tab clutter, similar to how tab groups work on Microsoft Edge and Google Chrome . Here's how to use them.

When you're ready, launch Safari on your Mac and open your favorite websites in different tabs. Next, click the "Show Sidebar" icon in the top-left corner of Safari to reveal the Sidebar.
In the Sidebar, you'll see the number of Tabs open at the top. Right-click the button showing the number of tabs open at the top of the sidebar and select "New Tab Group with [#] Tabs" to add all the open tabs into a single new tab group.
All the tabs will appear in a new "Untitled" tab group on the Sidebar. Right-click "Untitled" and select "Rename." Give a new name to the tab group and hit Return to save it.
Next, click the "Hide Sidebar" button in the top-left corner of Safari to close the Sidebar.
Safari will show you the tab group label at the top, next to the "Show Sidebar" button.
To move a tab into a new or existing tab group, right-click on the particular tab, select "Move to Tab Group," and choose an existing tab group name or a new tab group.
You can switch between the tab groups by clicking on the tab label in the top-left corner of Safari.
To add a new tab in any group, you can press Command+T to open a new tab or click the "+" (plus) button in the top-right corner of Safari. You can re-arrange the order of the tab groups by dragging them above or below the existing groups on the Sidebar.
To delete a tab from a tab group, hit the Tabs Overview button in the top-right corner (four squares) to see the snapshot of tabs in a group. Then, click the "X" in the top-left of the tab preview thumbnail to remove it from the group.
Tab Groups are a helpful feature for organizing and managing tabs instead of leaving several of them open. You can also copy the links of the open tabs in a tab group to save them for later before you close all the tabs at once . Happy Browsing!

If you’re using Safari but you’re not using Tab Groups, well, it’s time to change that.
Tab Groups, as the name implies, allows you to group a selection of tabs together and essentially set them aside for future use. For example, if you have a bunch of tabs you use for work and a bunch of tabs you use after work, you can cordon these tabs off into batches so that they don’t get in each other’s way. You can use your work tabs at work and, when you’re finished, swap them for your “after work” tabs with just one click.

You might also have different Tab Groups for different assignments at work or different school projects. Folks who share a computer might have different Tab Groups for each user. The possibilities are endless.
Here’s how to create a tab group in Safari.
How to create Safari Tab Groups on macOS
There are a couple of ways to do this. The easiest method is to make a group out of whatever tabs you currently have open. If you’re about to close Safari but think you might need to pick up where you left off when you open it later, throwing your tabs into a group can give you some peace of mind.
You can also create a tab group from scratch if there is a batch of tabs you think you might want to use later. This is a bit more time-consuming but will allow you to be more selective about which tabs to include.

To create a tab group from existing tabs
- In Safari, click the down arrow in the toolbar. (It’s on the left side, next to the button that opens the sidebar.)
- Pick New Tab Group With [X] Tabs .
- In the left column, look for the Tab Group subhead. Name your tab group, then press Enter.

To open your new tab group
- Click on that down arrow again.
- Click on the tab group you want.
Once you’ve got a group up and running, it’s not set in stone. You can adjust the makeup of a given tab group by clicking the arrow to its right in the sidebar’s tab group list. Right-click any tab that comes up, and you’ll have the option to remove it from the group, remove all tabs that aren’t it from the group, or move it to a different group,
You can also click the three dots just next to the arrow if you want to rename, delete, or share the group, along with other options.
How to create Safari Tab Groups on iOS
Tab Groups can sync between iOS and macOS devices, so if you create one on your Mac computer, you can still access it on your iPhone. Nevertheless, if it’s more convenient for you to create these from the Safari app on iOS, you can certainly do so.
- In the Safari app, click the tabs button on the bottom right. (It’s the one with two squares.)
- Press and hold a tab you want to add, then pick Move to Tab Group .
- Select New Tab Group .
- Name your new group.

No more tab hunting in Safari
![remove tab groups from safari Safari Tab Groups screenshot](https://cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net/jXBxSMVd52CCdwfA5Cuo3k-320-80.jpg)
With Safari 15 on macOS Monterey , you can now organize your tabs with Tab Groups. For those of us who regularly open up one too many tabs, it can be a bit of a chore finding the one you need. Tab Groups can make your life easier by allowing you to organize specific tabs into neat groups.
Incorporating Tab Groups into your browsing flow helps you find information faster. When you open a Tab Group, you open all the tabs within it - and hide everything else. You can then switch between Tab Groups, if need be. Here’s what you need to know about how to manage Tab Groups in Safari.
Creating a New Tab Group
![remove tab groups from safari Safari Tab Groups screenshot](https://cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net/PestESWr52LeiaFGwpm9Lm-320-80.jpg)
There are a few different ways you can create a Tab Group on Safari. Let’s start with the sidebar options:
- Click the down arrow next to the sidebar icon (marked Tab group picker). Then click on ‘New tab group’ with x tabs. You can then enter a name for this Tab Group, and press Return.
- If the sidebar is already open, then you can complete the same process outlined above by clicking on the icon at the top marked ‘New tab group’.
You can also create a new tab group by clicking on File > New Tab Group with x tabs . This will automatically add all your open tabs into that Tab Group.
Finally, you can also create an empty Tab Group. To do this:
- Follow the steps we outlined above, but instead of selecting ‘New Tab Group’, choose ‘New Empty Tab Group’.
- Give your Tab Group a name, then press Return.
- You can then drag the tabs you want from the tab bar into your Tab Group. Alternatively, control-click a tab, select Move to Tab Group, then choose the Tab Group you want to move it to.
Open an Existing Tab Group
![remove tab groups from safari Safari Tab Groups screenshot](https://cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net/kBoejLYi4EhkfAapZS35tm-320-80.jpg)
Once you’ve created a Tab Group, it’s really simple to open it when you need it. There are two ways to do this:
- In Safari, you can click the down arrow that’s next to the Sidebar button on your toolbar. You can then choose the relevant Tab Group from the dropdown menu.
- Alternatively, if the sidebar is already open, you can choose a Tab Group from there.
It’s worth noting that if you are unsure which Tab Group you need, you can preview thumbnails of what’s in the group. To do this, click the Tab Group in the sidebar, then click the Tab Overview button. This will then present your tabs in an easy-to-view tile format, so you can quickly find what you are looking for.

Switch Between Tab Groups
![remove tab groups from safari Safari Tab Groups screenshot](https://cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net/xwTJaNXSsn8KkAsjNnKhTn-320-80.jpg)
If the sidebar menu is closed, then click on the name of your current Tab Group, which you’ll see in the top left corner of the Safari window. If you click on it, you can then select a different Tab Group. There will also be a small down arrow next to your Tab Group name, which serves the same function.
If you need to switch between Tab Groups, this is also very straightforward. If you are using the sidebar, you’ll see all your Tab Groups listed under the Tab Groups header. Simply choose whichever one you wish to switch to by clicking on it. It will open the new Tab Group, and the previously open tabs will be hidden.
Editing Tab Groups
![remove tab groups from safari Safari Tab Groups screenshot](https://cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net/z2o9hsemHhD2eQXedsoq8o-320-80.jpg)
Tab Groups give you plenty of scope to edit, so you don’t need to worry that once you’ve created a group, it can’t be changed. Let’s run through the key things you need to know:
- Rename a Tab Group from the sidebar. Control-click the Tab Group you wish to change, choose Rename, type in a new name, and press Return.
- To rearrange the order in which your Tab Groups appear, again use your sidebar. Simply drag a Tab Group to the position you want it to be.
- If you want to rearrange the order of the tabs within a Tab Group, start by opening the tab group. Then in the tab bar, drag a tab before or after another tab, to put it in the desired spot.
- To delete a tab from a Tab Group, open the Tab Group. Find the tab you wish to delete in the tab bar, and click the Close button on the left side of that tab.
- And finally, if you want to delete a Tab Group altogether, go to your sidebar. Control-click the Tab Group you no longer want, and choose Delete. This will delete all the tabs that were included in that group. So if you want to retain any of them, make sure you move them to another Tab Group first.
Sync to Other Devices
![remove tab groups from safari Safari Tab Groups screenshot](https://cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net/DaVERxUCmJ5PGH6qVfEP-320-80.jpg)
If you are signed in with the same Apple ID to any other device - be it an iPad, iPhone, or Mac - then Tab Groups from your Mac will be shared with your other devices automatically. The same principle applies in reverse, so any Tab Groups you create on your iPhone for example, will be shared with your Mac.
You can also send the links in a Tab Group to others, simply by dragging the Tab Group from the sidebar of Safari and dropping it into a mail message. If you control-click the Tab Group, you can copy the links from your Tab Group, and then paste them into another app, such as a Notes or Pages document. It will automatically include the name of the Tab Group, followed by the list of links.
That’s everything you need to know about how to manage Tab Groups in Safari in macOS Monterey. It’s a great tool for keeping your tabs under control, instead of endlessly searching for what you need.

Using Tab Groups in Safari on iPhone
The Tab Groups feature in Safari is universally available on both macOS and iOS devices. You can create and use Tab Groups on iPhone just as well as you do on Mac, and it’s extremely helpful in many ways on both platforms.
Create a Tab Group on iPhone
Well, the first and foremost requirement to create Tab Group on Safari is to get iOS 15 on your iPhone.
Once you’re on iOS 15, open Safari on your iPhone from the home screen.
![remove tab groups from safari](https://allthings.how/content/images/wordpress/2021/06/allthings.how-how-to-create-a-tab-group-in-safari-open-safari-759x416.png)
The new Safari has an address bar at the bottom of the screen. This makes accessing open tabs easier. Tap on the ‘Tabs’ icon from the bottom right corner of the screen to view all open tabs in Safari in a Grid view.
![remove tab groups from safari click on tabs](https://allthings.how/content/images/wordpress/2021/06/allthings.how-how-to-create-a-tab-group-in-safari-click-tabs-759x427.png)

If you want to create a new Tab Group, click on the ‘New Empty Tab Group’ to create a new tab group comprising a single blank tab.
![remove tab groups from safari click new empty tab group to create new group in safari](https://allthings.how/content/images/wordpress/2021/06/allthings.how-how-to-create-a-tab-group-in-safari-empty-tab-group-759x359.png)
If you wish to create a Tab Group of all open tabs, then click on the ‘New Tab Group from ## Tabs’ option to create a tab group comprising of all currently opened tabs.
![remove tab groups from safari click new tab group from 4 tabs to create current group in safari](https://allthings.how/content/images/wordpress/2021/06/allthings.how-how-to-create-a-tab-group-in-safari-current-tab-group-759x359.png)

Re-arranging Tabs in a Group
Safari also lets you rearrange tabs inside a Tab Group. It might come in handy when you have a lot of tabs present in a group.
Simply press and hold any tab in the group, and select the ‘Arrange Tabs By Title’ option if you want to arrange them by alphabetical order. Otherwise, tap on ‘Arrange Tabs by Website’ to arrange them according to your most visited websites.

Close All Tabs in a Tab Group
With tab groups, you’re probably gonna end up with many open tabs in different groups. It sounds exhausting even thinking about closing every single of them manually.
Well, to our rescue, Safari has a way to close every tab in the group except the one you have selected.
First, open the Tab Group you want to close open tabs from and then tap and hold on one of the open tabs from the Grid View of tabs. A pop-up menu will show, tap on ‘Close Other Tabs’ option from the pop-up.
![remove tab groups from safari](https://allthings.how/content/images/wordpress/2021/06/allthings.how-how-to-create-a-tab-group-in-safari-close-all-tabs-759x462.png)
This will delete all open tabs in the group except the one that you pushed. Just close it manually if you wish, but then what’s the point of having an empty Tab Group (just delete it).

How to Use Safari Tab Groups in macOS
In macOS Monterey, Tab Groups are a new Safari feature that aim to make organizing and preserving your open browser tabs more manageable without having to have those tabs active and taking up space.
![remove tab groups from safari safari macos icon banner](https://images.macrumors.com/t/zGlMd_ZtjzfV0joYTPb6j6BdLaI=/400x0/article-new/2020/08/safari-macos-icon-banner.jpg?lossy)
If you're planning a trip, for example, you can save all of your tabs into a "Vacation" group, accessing them when needed and leaving your device free for other content when you're not doing active planning. Or if you have a set of websites you always open up for work, you can save these in a dedicated Tab Group.
How to Create a Tab Group in Safari

Any Tab Groups you create are listed in the sidebar for easy switching. You can also select groups by clicking the down arrow next to the Show Sidebar icon. Any tabs that are opened when a Tab Group is selected will automatically be included in that group.

How to create a new tab group in Safari
- How to rename a tab group in Safari
- How to reorder tab groups in Safari
- How to view all tabs in a tab group in Safari
- How to delete a tab group in Safari
When you're browsing the web on your current iPhone, do you end up with hundreds of tabs open? I mean, did you even know that the limit of tabs you can open is actually capped at 500? I've come about halfway to that, but I know others have reached that outrageous limit thanks to social media. But an iOS 15 feature can help you organize that chaos into something a little more manageable, at least, if you're disciplined enough to keep up with it.
Apple added Safari tab groups in iOS 15 , iPadOS 15, and macOS Monterey . With tab groups, you can sort and group together your open tabs, such as websites for work, shopping, entertainment, and more.
Here's how to use tab groups in Safari on the best iPhone and iPad, like the iPhone 13 Pro . And if you're wondering about it for your Mac, here's how to use tab groups in Safari in macOS Monterey .
The moment you launch Safari on iPhone and iPad, you've already created a new tab group by default. Any tabs that you open will go into this default tab group. However, you can create a new group at any time if you so choose.
- Launch Safari on your iPhone or iPad.
- Tap the tab button on the bottom toolbar . It looks like two cascading squares.
- Tap where it says X Tabs ("X" being the number of tabs open in this group), with an arrow pointing down . This will bring up the Tab Groups menu .
![remove tab groups from safari Create new tab group in Safari on iPhone: Launch Safari, tap the Tab button, tap the number of tabs to bring up menu](https://cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net/6Ac6ypM4QVoRVr6dF9HQ3K-320-80.jpg)
- Tap New Empty Tab Group .
- Give your new tab group a name .
![remove tab groups from safari Create new tab group in Safari on iPhone: Tap New Empty Tab Group, give group a name, tap Save](https://cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net/yFAK8MP9dDDKVRfcqLdpTC-320-80.jpg)
Now, any new tab that you open will be in this new tab group until you switch groups. And tab groups are synced across all of your devices via iCloud, so you can pick up easily where you left off across your iPhone, iPad , and Mac.
How to rename a tab group in Safari on iOS and iPadOS 15
If you have multiple tab groups, you'll want to make sure that they are named so you can easily recognize what they are for at a glance. Thankfully, you can rename a tab group at any time.
- Make sure you are in the Tab Groups menu by following steps 1-3 above .
![remove tab groups from safari Rename tab group in Safari on iPhone: Launch Safari, tap the Tab button, tap the number of tabs to bring up menu](https://cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net/6Ac6ypM4QVoRVr6dF9HQ3K-320-80.jpg)
- Long press on a tab group that you have already given a name .
- Select Rename in the contextual popup menu.
- Type in the new name .
![remove tab groups from safari Rename tab group in Safari on iPhone: Long press an existing tab group to bring up menu, tap Rename, type in new name, tap Save](https://cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net/b8bh6jL2qfEDUVybMSZiuL-320-80.jpg)
How to reorder tab groups in Safari on iOS and iPadOS 15
- Make sure you are in the Tab Groups menu .
![remove tab groups from safari Reorder tab groups in Safari on iPhone: Launch Safari, tap the Tab button, tap the number of tabs to bring up menu](https://cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net/6Ac6ypM4QVoRVr6dF9HQ3K-320-80.jpg)
- Touch and drag one of your groups into your desired spot on the list.
![remove tab groups from safari Reorder tab groups in Safari iPhone: Touch-and-drag the tab group you want into the position on the list](https://cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net/ksQfpMCtKuA5emvAwM8U2o-320-80.jpg)
You should make sure that you are quick to drag it because if you long-press the tab group, it will just bring up the menu to rename or delete it.

How to view all tabs in a tab group in Safari on iOS and iPadOS 15
When you can't remember all of the tabs that are open in a tab group, you can view everything that is in a certain tab group just by viewing that group.
- While you're on a webpage , tap the tab button on the toolbar .
- To see what other tabs are open in other tab groups, select the tab group you want to view tabs for.
- You'll get to see a thumbnail of each tab in a tab group once it's selected.
![remove tab groups from safari View all tabs in a tab group in Safari on iPhone: Launch Safari, tap the Tab button, tap the number of tabs to bring up menu](https://cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net/6Ac6ypM4QVoRVr6dF9HQ3K-320-80.jpg)
How to delete a tab group in Safari on iOS and iPadOS 15
![remove tab groups from safari Delete tab group in Safari on iPhone: Launch Safari, tap the Tab button, tap the number of tabs to bring up menu](https://cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net/6Ac6ypM4QVoRVr6dF9HQ3K-320-80.jpg)

Deleting a tab group will close out all tabs that are in the tab group. You cannot undo this action.
Tab groups are useful, but for the disciplined
As you can see, tab groups can definitely be helpful if you tend to end up with hundreds of open tabs in Safari over time, thought the feature can be a little hidden for most people. But as useful as the feature is, it's definitely for those who are disicplined enough to keep up with it. As you can tell from the screenshots, I'm a little lazy to maintain the upkeep. iOS 15 and iPadOS 15 brought many changes to Safari, and despite some early controversies, it seems to have quieted down a bit.
Updated May 2022: Added screenshots. These are still the current steps for tab groups in Safari in the latest version of iOS.

How to Group Tabs in Chrome, Edge, Safari, and Firefox
Quick links, how to group tabs in google chrome, how to group tabs in edge, how to group tabs in firefox, how to group tabs in safari.
- Group tabs in Chrome by right-clicking any tab, selecting Add tab to new group , and naming/color-coding it for easy management.
- Edge allows tab grouping by right-clicking a tab or using the Tab actions menu for suggested groups.
- Firefox lacks built-in tab grouping, but the Simple Tab Groups add-on helps create, hide, and manage tab groups efficiently.
- Safari keeps it simple with a dropdown menu, followed by creating a new group.
If you're a tab hoarder, tab groups are the best way to organize your browsing experience, so it's time to learn how to group tabs in the most popular browsers: Chrome, Safari, Edge, and Firefox.
Grouping tabs in Google Chrome is quite easy. To do so, right-click on any tab you want to add to a tab group. Select Add tab to new group and then name and color code your tab group. This helps you manage tab groups when you have multiple groups open.
To add more tabs to an existing group, drag and drop them near the tab group. Alternatively, right-click the tab you want to add to the group, click on Add tab to group , hover your mouse over it, and select the tab group where you want to add it.
If you use the same set of tabs frequently (perhaps for work), you can save the tab group in Chrome by right-clicking the tab group name in the tab bar and turning Save group on. Essentially, it is a bookmark of different tabs that you can access with a single click, and the saved tab group appears on your bookmark bar.
Like Chrome, Edge also lets you group tabs by right-clicking any tab and selecting Add tab to new group . In the same way, you can drag and drop tabs (once you've created a group) to add or remove them from the group.
However, Edge also offers another simpler way to group tabs. Click on the Tab actions menu icon (in the top-left corner) and select Organize Tabs . Edge then shows suggested tab groups, giving each of them a suitable name. If you need to change the tab groups, you can drag them into/out of the group. Then, click Group tabs , and voilà, your tabs are organized.
If you can't see the Tab actions menu, go to edge://settings/appearance, scroll down to Customize Toolbar, and turn on the Show tab actions menu .
Unfortunately, Firefox does not have a built-in feature for grouping tabs, so you'll have to resort to add-ons to manage multiple tabs in Firefox . Though there are several add-ons you can try, Simple Tab Groups is quite a popular and handy one.
Download: Simple Tab Groups for Firefox (Free)
Once you've downloaded the add-on, right-click any tab, select Move tab to the group , and then Create new group . Name the tab group and move all related tabs to the group.
Simple Tab Groups hides the grouped tabs from your window to declutter the screen. To access tab groups, click the extension icon and select Simple Tab Groups . From here, you can create new tab groups or click any existing tab group to open it. Right-clicking the group name shows more options, like discarding, exporting, or opening tabs in a new window.
You can also create a new group by clicking the extension icon , selecting Simple Tab Groups , and choosing Create new group .
Pin the extension to the toolbar to open tab groups quickly.
To create a tab group in Safari , follow these steps.
- Click the down icon (next to the sidebar icon) and select New Empty Tab Group if you don't want to add any tab to the group for now.
- If you already have tabs open, you can select New Tab Group with X Tabs to add all the open tabs to the newly-created group.
- Once you've created a tab group, Safari lets you rename it to your liking.
- You can also access the option to create a tab group by clicking on File .
Once you've organized all the tabs into groups, click the down arrow (beside the sidebar icon) to see all the different tab groups and select the one you want to open.
How to remove AI answers from Google search on any device
In this tutorial, we will show you how to remove AI-generated answers from the top of your Google search results on your iPhone, iPad, and Mac. These tips also work on an Android phone, Windows PC, and elsewhere.
![remove tab groups from safari Google search on iPhone without AI](https://media.idownloadblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/05/Google-search-without-AI.jpg)
Google now shows an AI-generated overview at the top of the search results page for most (not all) queries. At this point, these answers are not only unhelpful but can even get downright dangerous.
For instance, Google’s Artificial Intelligence (AI) summaries can rely on decade-old obscure Reddit answers or other web forum and website articles, including satirical ones like The Onion , to suggest outrageous answers like putting glue in pizza , drinking urine to fix kidney stones , or eating one small rock every day .
If you do not want these unhelpful answers on your or your kids’ search results page, we go over various ways to remove them.
Manually go to the web tab
When you search for something on Google, it will default you to the “ All ” categories view with the AI answers at the top. Simply click More > Web to get answers without all the AI nonsense.
![remove tab groups from safari Click More Web on Google search results page](https://media.idownloadblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/05/Click-More-Web-on-Google-search-results-page.png)
If you’re on mobile, swipe the categories at the top and tap Web .
![remove tab groups from safari Web tab on Google search results page](https://media.idownloadblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/05/Web-tab-on-Google-search-results-page.png)
The rest of the tips in this guide are based on this principle to get to the “Web” section easily by default instead of “All.”
Note: The Web view also removes some handy Google smart features. For instance, it will remove the currency conversion calculator that you usually see on top of the search results if you search for something like 32 USD in Pounds .
Use udm14.com instead of Google
Instead of Google.com or one of its country-specific domains like Google.co.in , you can simply use udm14.com as your window to search for your queries. It will show you Google search results without all the AI-generated content.
![remove tab groups from safari AI-free search on Google using udm=14](https://media.idownloadblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/05/AI-free-search-on-Google-using-udm-14.png)
Configure a userscript for Safari
The majority of Apple users rely on Safari for their web browsing. Unlike Chrome, there isn’t an extension to remove AI answers from Google search, but you can use a clever userscript by Zenith along with a Safari extension to always see the AI-free “Web” answers on Google instead of “All” answers. This tip also works for other browsers like Chrome and Firefox.
1) Install the Userscripts Safari extension from the Mac App Store.
2) Visit this GitHub page and click script.user.js .

![remove tab groups from safari Web results without AI on Google](https://media.idownloadblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/05/Web-results-without-AI-on-Google.png)
Safari on iPhone and iPad also supports extensions . We will show you how to configure the extension you used on your Mac to remove AI summaries from your Google search page on mobile.

6) From now on, when you search for a query in Google, it will take you to the AI-free “ Web ” results instead of “All” results, thus protecting you from AI-generated answers.
Use Chrome extensions
If you use Chrome, Brave, Microsoft Edge, Opera, and other Chromium browsers on your Mac or Windows PC, you can use extensions like Bye Bye Google AI or Hide Google AI Overviews to get rid of AI answers from your search results.
Bye Bye Google AI also lets you hide other things like Discussions and Forums and Sponsored Links from your search results.
Configure Chrome, Brave, Edge, and other Chromium browsers to remove Google AI Overviews
While the extension method is simple, if you have second thoughts about using an extension, you can manually configure your web browser to show “Web” results without AI summaries. The process is easy and will take less than a minute. We will use Chrome, but the steps are almost similar for other Chromium browsers.
1) Open Chrome and go to its settings. You can do this by clicking Chrome > Settings from Mac’s top menu bar or by clicking the three dots icon from the upper right corner and selecting Settings .
2) Click Search engine > Manage search engines and site search .
3) Click the Add button next to Site search .
![remove tab groups from safari Add Site Search in Google Chrome](https://media.idownloadblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/05/Add-Site-Search-in-Google-Chrome.png)
4) Fill in the following details and hit Add :
- Name: Google Web or anything you like, such as Google Without AI
- Shortcut: @web
- URL with %s in place of query: {google:baseURL}search?q=%s&udm=14
![remove tab groups from safari Add site search in Google to search without AI](https://media.idownloadblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/05/Add-site-search-in-Google-to-search-without-AI.png)
5) Click the three dots icon next to the Search engine shortcut you created and select Make default .
![remove tab groups from safari Make Google Without Al as default in Chrome](https://media.idownloadblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/05/Make-Google-Without-Al-as-default-in-Chrome.png)
From now on, when you search for a query in Google, you will be taken to the “Web” results that do not show AI summaries and answers.
Set AI-free Google search engine in Firefox on iOS
If you already use Firefox on your iPhone, iPad , or Android phone or are willing to switch to it, you can easily get a cleaner AI-free Google search experience. These steps below allow you to set Google as the search engine, but with a minor change that adds udm=14&q=%s to your search queries, thus removing AI answers.
1) Open Firefox on your iPhone, iPad, or Android phone. We are using an iPhone.
2) Tap the hamburger menu icon from the lower right corner and select Settings .
3) Tap Search under the General heading.
![remove tab groups from safari Go to Firefox Search settings on iPhone](https://media.idownloadblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/05/Go-to-Firefox-Search-settings-on-iPhone.png)

5) Fill in the following details and tap Save :
- Title: Give it a name. I’m going with Google Without AI .
- URL: https://www.google.com/search?udm=14&q=%s
![remove tab groups from safari Add Search Engine in Firefox on iPhone](https://media.idownloadblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/05/Add-Search-Engine-in-Firefox-on-iPhone.png)

7) Open a tab in Firefox and search for a query. You will be taken to the “Web” tab, which does not show AI summaries.
If you use Chrome on iOS
Tenbluelinks.org suggests a way to change the search engine in Chrome on iPhone and iPad, but it did not work for me. So, if you use Chrome on iOS, give it a try and let me know if it works for you.

Google Chrome for iPhone Will Soon Let You Group Multiple Tabs Within Tab Grid
There’s a familiar frustration for iPhone users who use Chrome for their web browsing: the lack of tab groups. This feature, already available on Chrome for Android and iPads, lets users organize their open tabs into groups for better management. You can now group multiple tabs under a specific tab group. For instance, you can create a tab group for work, recreation, personal, so on and so forth.
As observed by The Mac Observer , tab grouping functionality for Chrome on iPhones have been discovered within a code review page for the Chromium project. It also comes with drag-and-drop functionality, hence making creating and managing these groups easy. This can all lead to a more organized and effortless browsing experience.
Here’s how you can enable it:
- Make sure your Google Chrome is updated.
- Open Chrome, and in the address bar, type chrome://flags
- A new screen will pop up, and you’ll find a search bar on top.
- Search for “Tab group,” and two options will occur.
- Choose “Enable” under ‘Enable Tab Groups in the grid.’
![remove tab groups from safari Chrome Flags](https://www.macobserver.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/05/IMG_9060-473x1024.png)
Chrome flags are experimental features and tools that are hidden in Chrome and other software and are disabled by default. They allow users to activate browser features that are not available by default. Tab groups can be game-changers for anyone who juggles multiple tabs while browsing. Imagine grouping research tabs for a project, keeping travel-related tabs together, or separating social media from work-related browsing.
Recently, The Mac Observer , discovered earlier last month that a similar functionality was coming to iPads . At that point, it was unclear how soon it’d come to iPhones, but here we are. Chrome browser has one of the largest marketshare when it comes to mobile browsers. Meanwhile, Safari is at the second position. Looks like Google is trying to widen the gap by adding new features to its Chrome browser on iOS. Recently Chrome gained parcel tracking , multiple profile support , and much more on the iOS.
