Back in May 2020, Google announced a new group tabs feature on Google Chrome that lets you group similar tabs into one and label them.
“There are two types of people in the world: tab minimalists who have just a few tabs open at a time and tab collectors who have…significantly more. For minimalists and collectors alike, we’re bringing a new way to organize your tabs to Chrome: tab groups” – Google
If you want to create a group you need to right-click on the tab, add a tab to the group, and label them with a custom name and color. Once the tabs are grouped together, you can move and reorder them on the tab strip.
If you find it a hassle to manually create group tabs manually, this guide is for you. In this tutorial, we are going to learn how to automatically group tabs on Google Chrome on the desktop. You just need to install a chrome extension, that’s it. The extension will do things for you.
