Summary

If you're signed into Chrome on multiple devices, you can use any device to view a list of tabs that are open on the others. This is easy on mobile, but it can be annoying to view it on desktop (either on the history tab, or by clicking on "Recent tabs" in the settings dropdown).

This changes the new tab page to a simple listing of your tabs on other devices.

wish it had an option to "open all in new window"

Excellent extension! Can we please have a dark mode? I've got everything else in dark mode, this screen is killing me! :)

This is almost exactly the same as a Chrome Extension I made many years back that got lost due to HD failure. Great minds and such... I've been using this for years and it's great. The simple yet sophisticated minimalist design of the page fits right in with the look and feel of Chrome. This extension should be integrated into Chrome as an option (or the default) right under the Home Page button. There is a small issue that I've only recently found. I do not believe it is being caused by or the fault of this Extension but rather an issue with Chrome / Google, but I wanted to mention it since I've performed the same action over and over and never ran into this issue. If you upgrade to the latest version of Chrome on IOS and you had the older version of Chrome open (or more likely you didn't individually close each tab and instead closed the application), there will be two instances of Chrome for the IOS device. The new instance will work as expected, updating the tabs and such. The old version will just show whatever the last tabs you had. I've tried removing the device and re adding it but this issue still persists.
