We’ve all been there: there are too many tabs open on our Chrome and we can’t really find the one we’re looking for. Luckily, Google is updating its browser with a handy tab search feature that ought to solve that.
Chrome 87 will bring a new button next to the new tab sign that’ll help you find an already open tab. Click on that button, and you’ll be able to type in the title of the tab you’re searching for.
Google said that this feature is coming to Chromebooks first and other desktop systems later. If you’re using a Windows machine, you can try out this guide from 9to5Google to enable this feature before it becomes available officially. For Mac users like me, there seems to be no option but to wait it out.
