Why This Matters

Apple's upcoming Safari feature, 'Organize Tabs,' aims to automatically group and manage open tabs, enhancing user productivity and browsing efficiency. This development reflects the growing integration of AI-driven tools in mainstream browsers, offering a more streamlined browsing experience for users with extensive tab collections. As competitors like Google Chrome have already introduced similar features, Apple's implementation signals its commitment to staying competitive in AI-powered web browsing innovations.

Key Takeaways

For those of us who keep hundreds of Safari tabs open, Apple is reportedly testing out a new feature that can organize all of it automatically. According to Bloomberg's Mark Gurman, Apple is working on a Safari feature called "Organize Tabs" that will debut with iOS 27, iPadOS 27 and macOS 27. As the name suggests, the new feature will automatically organize your Safari tabs, but Gurman added that it won't carry the Apple Intelligence label, even though it's likely using some form of artificial intelligence. Once the feature is live, Safari users will be able to choose if they want the grouping to be automatic or not, according to Gurman.

This Organize Tabs feature adds onto the Tab Groups option that was introduced to Safari 15 back in 2021. Of course, Google already debuted a similar capability on Chrome in January 2024, called Organize Similar Tabs, marketing it as one of its new generative AI features. However, Apple has been known to lag behind its competitors when it comes to AI-powered features. According to Gurman, we could get our first look at the Organize Tabs feature at WWDC26, which is scheduled to kick off on June 8.
