“#How to Copy URLs of All Open Tabs in Safari”

Starting with Safari 15, Apple’s browser now has a hidden feature that lets you copy all the web addresses (URLs) from dozens of open tabs. Here’s how you can copy links from multiple tabs at once on your Mac, iPhone, and iPad.

What You’ll Need

Apple added the new “Copy Links” feature with Safari 15 to export URLs from open tabs on iPhone, iPad, and Mac. To use Safari 15, you’ll need to be running iOS 15 or iPadOS 15 (or higher) on your iPhone and iPad, respectively. On a Mac running macOS Big Sur or higher, you can fetch the latest Safari version using the Software Update feature from System Preferences.

How to Copy Tab URLs in Safari on iPhone or iPad

First, launch the Safari browser on your iPhone or iPad and open all the websites whose addresses you want to copy. On an iPad, tap the tabs button (four squares) or the plus (“+”) button depending on your tab bar layout. On an iPhone, tap the “Tabs” button (overlapping squares) in the lower-right corner.

All the open tabs will appear as a grid of thumbnails, and the number of open tabs will appear in the toolbar. Select the “[Num] Tabs” button on the top bar (iPad) or bottom bar (iPhone), where [Num] is the number of open tabs.

Select the "Tabs" menu from the bottom bar.

In the “Tab Groups” menu that appears, tap the “Edit” button.

Next, tap the three dots in a circle button and select “Copy Links.”

Tap on the ellipses horizontal circle button and select "Copy Links."

All the URLs from the open tabs have now been copied to the clipboard. You can paste them into any app that can receive pasted text. After copying all the links, you can close all Safari tabs at once, if you’d like.

Select "Copy LInks" from the context menu in Safari on Mac.

That’s it! You can paste those URLs to the clipboard in a message, email, app, or anywhere you like. Happy browsing!
