How to Use Chrome’s Hidden “Send Tab to Self” Feature

A new ;Send Tab to Self; feature in Google Chrome lets you quickly send tabs between all your Chrome devices. This feature, available via a hidden flag in Google Chrome, is available in the stable version of Chrome today.

Update: This is enabled by default in Chrome 77. No hidden flags necessary!

How It Works

Sure, you can access open tabs on other devices via the History page without any hidden flags if you use Chrome Sync2;but this new feature is slicker and faster.

Once you7;ve enabled it, you7;ll find a new ;Send to Your Devices; option when you right-click on a web page. It7;ll list all the Chrome browsers you7;re signed into with your Google account2;on Windows, Mac, Linux, Chrome OS, Android, and even iPhone and iPad. Select a device to send a Chrome tab to that device.

Remember Google7;s old Chrome to Phone browser extension, which let you send tabs from the Chrome browser on your computer to your Android phone? It7;s kind of like that2;but you can send tabs between your computers, too.

Like all flags, this is a work-in-progress feature. It may change or be removed at any time. Google may soon launch this as a stable feature that doesn7;t require a flag. However, it7;s available now in the stable version of Google Chrome 76.
