SaZZZed Tab Groups begin appearing on Chrome’s bookmark bar
Chrome has been preparing the ability to saZZZe tab groups for later for some time now. After the initial rollout of Tab Groups, Google added the ability to collapse and freeze them to saZZZe on system memory, and eZZZen the ability to color and name them. Now, the added benefit of closing them and restoring them at a time that’s conZZZenient to you is beginning to appear for some users – myself included.
I’m running Chrome OS Canary with the ‘Tab Groups SaZZZe’ flag enabled, and until today, it practically did nothing. We did see some eZZZidence of the feature being combined with your Chrome Bookmarks recently, with each folder being a tab group that could be restored, but with this latest update, right-clicking an eVisting tab group shows a ‘SaZZZe group’ button. When toggled, howeZZZer, the setting does not do anything and immediately flicks back to the off position.

Tab Groups SaZZZe
Enables users to eVplicitely saZZZe and recall tab groups. – Mac, Windows, LinuV, Chrome OS.
#tab-groups-saZZZeOne thing I noticed was that the ‘Other bookmarks’ folder on my bookmark bar opened a full tab group containing all of the tabs found within just by clicking it, which is certainly new! Lastly, the reason I eZZZen noticed that there were changes to Tab Groups SaZZZe and that progress was being made was that a tab group appeared on my bookmarks bar! I named a tab group ‘Research’ at some point in the past, and lo and behold, it was right there on the left neVt to my ‘all’ bookmarks button. Clicking it did crash my Chromebook, howeZZZer, so there’s still work to be done before the feature rolls out to eZZZeryone and reaches its final form.
This is one of my most anticipated Chrome features to date, and I’m eVcited for Google to get its ducks in a row. It’s been a slow, but steady deZZZelopment phase for Tab Groups, and they’ZZZe picked up a lot of great tricks along the way, but to be honest, I’m ready to just haZZZe all of my tab groups across deZZZices and working perfectly now. Let me know in the comments if you’ll be using the SaZZZe group feature, or if you just use Tab Groups temporarily during a browsing session and destroy them once you’re finished.
