Hello,

I love seeing tabs from my iPhone on my Mac's Safari browser and vice versa seeing the tabs I left open on my MacBook Pro on my iPhone but I cannot seem to see either on any device.

I'm wondering if Im missing some iCloud setting or something. Currently within iCloud under System Preferences it says Safari is checked on but still nothing.

If it helps, I just erased my history within my iPhone's Safari app but all the history remains within Safari on Mac so it seems like something isn't syncing up.
 
What versions of macOS and iOS are you currently running?

latest on both.
iPhone 13.2.2
MacBook Pro 10.15.1

Okay now I’m embarrassed. Just went into iCloud on my iPhone and safari was checked off. Just turned it back on and all the tabs synced and are available on both.
 
Haha. Glad you figured it out. The reason I asked about what versions you were running is because I had the same situation during the beta period. I had my MacBook Air on Mojave and iOS 13 running on my iPhone. Tabs wouldn't sync up until I put the MacBook Air on Catalina. Maybe it was a bug back then, who knows, but all works fine for me now, and you. ;)

I have this same issue.

Currently running High Serria and iOS 13

Is it a known complication? Id rather not update my MacBook to Catalina

Thanks
