Share This:

If you’re an iPhone user, you know that Safari is the go-to browser for getting around the web. But what if you accidentally close a tab or window in Safari and can’t find it again? Don’t worry, restoring recently closed tabs in Safari on your iPhone is easy.

First, open Safari and tap on the tab button in the lower right-hand corner of the screen. This will show you all tabs that are currently open. If you don’t see the tab or window that you need, look for the “Recent Tabs” option from the drop-down menu. Here you’ll be able to see a list of all tabs that were recently opened or closed. To restore one of these tabs simply tap on it and it will open back up in Safari.

If there’s a specific site you were visiting before it was closed, then there’s another way to restore it without having to go through a list of recent tabs. Simply type in part of the name of the website into Safari’s address bar and a list of suggestions for similar sites will appear below it. Tap on the correct suggestion and your site will open back up as if nothing ever happened.

It’s also important to note that restoring recently closed tabs doesn’t mean that they’ll still have any data associated with them such as login information or forms already filled out. So make sure to save anything important before closing a tab just in case!

We hope this helps make navigating around Safari on your iPhone a little easier! If you have any questions or need additional help restoring recently closed tabs, feel free to reach out to us anytime!

What Happened to My Open Safari Tabs on My iPhone?

You can access this feature by opening the tab view in Safari and long-pressing the “+” icon. This will show you a list of all the tabs that are or were opened, and from there you can select the one that you want to open by tapping on it.

Retrieving Open Tabs After Clearing History on iPhone

If you have iCloud enabled, and Safari is toggled on under Settings > [your name] > iCloud, then all of the tabs that were open will be restored when you restart Safari.

Does Safari Backup iPhone Tabs?

Additionally, all of your Safari bookmarks, Reading List, and Tab Groups are also stored in the cloud and available across devices.
