Subject: Tabs, Closing Them All In Safari, How To Close All Open Tabs, With A Long Press Gesture, Rita's iDevice Advice Note: How to do this using an iPhone SE or, 6S & running iOS 10.33 steps are below the main article. From: Rita Howells via iDevices Rita's iDevice Advice for November 6, 2017: You can close all open tabs in Safari, in a long press gesture Safari for iPhone and iPad is an incredibly capable mobile web browser despite its simple, straightforward user interface. It is the browser of choice on iOS devices, in large part because it is the one pre-installed, but very few people know everything you can do with Safari. Much of Safari's advanced functionality is hidden behind long-press gestures. I find that a lot of people keep many tabs open in Safari, usually from previously browsing sessions. There is a way to close all the open tabs with a "long press gesture on the "tabs" button on your iPhone. When using VoiceOver: perform a one finger double tap and hold gesture. Long press on the Tabs button: The Tabs toolbar button is located on the right side of the screen, either at the top on iPad or bottom on iPhone. Tapping it launches the carousel view of preview cards for all the open tabs. However, you can also long-press it to reveal several more options. Without entering the tab screen, a long-press on the button reveals an action sheet. You can close all open tabs in one tab or close the current tab. You can also quickly open a new tab, either in a normal window or jumping to Private Browsing mode. If you long-press the Tabs button on iPad, you can also see options for Split View tabs. You can 'Open Split View' if you are currently in full-screen mode, or vice-versa and merge back down into a single view, without having to worry about dragging and dropping tabs to the side of the display. Rita From: Kevin Meyers via iDevices I use Iphone 6S and could not find the tab button in the bottom right corner of the screen when in Safari. Also I'm using IOS10. Kevin Meyers From: Rita Howells via iDevices Hello Kevin, when running Apple iOS 10 software version, the button will be labeled as pages instead of tabs. So, perform a one finger double tap and hold on the Pages button and there will be an option to clear all the open pages/tabs. When iOS 11 was introduced that button got changed from the name Pages two tabs Rita Take care. Mike. Go Dodgers! Sennt from my iBarstool. Arguing with a woman is like reading a software license agreement. In the end you have to ignore everything, & click I agree. ----- Original Message ----- From: kelby carlson To: viphone@googlegroups.com Sent: Saturday, March 10, 2018 6:39 AM Subject: Moving Tabs in Safari Is it possible to switch tabs in Safari without opening the tabs list?
