Google is testing an automatic tab archiving feature in the Chrome browser

The number of open tabs in Chrome for Android can quickly become out of control, especially if users frequently open the same pages. Google is working on a new feature that will help solve this problem.

Known insider Leopeva64 has revealed that Chrome for Android may get a switch to automatically archive duplicate tabs. All duplicate tabs except the last open copy will be archived.

This feature will come in handy for those who frequently open duplicate tabs for tasks such as tracking packages, browsing Wi-Fi pages while traveling, etc. Automatic archiving will reduce the number of active tabs and bring order to the browser, which will positively affect the performance of the device.

This is not the only attempt by Google to simplify tab management. The company previously introduced a feature that automatically closes inactive tabs after 60 days. Archiving tabs, in turn, will become another useful tool for optimizing browser performance.

Google has not yet announced the exact launch date, but users hope that the new feature will be available to a wide audience soon.
