Google Chrome will soon show the ‘correct’ tab count for Android users – Times of India

Google Chrome on Android will soon start counting the total number of tabs that you have opened separately. In 2021, Google Chrome started creating Tab Groups on Android where the number of tabs opened inside a group is shown as a single tab beside the Omnibox. Google seems to have started rolling out Chrome version 106 on Android and this update is expected to change the behaviour of these Tab Groups. Apart from the new way of counting tabs, Google Chrome will also allow users to lock Incognito tabs with their fingerprint on Android with the same update, reports 9to5Google.
New tab counting on Google Chrome for Android
As mentioned above, Google Chrome currently counts all the sites opened inside a tab in a single group. So, when you have four sites opened in one tab and two sites in another, the indicator will show the count as two tabs.

However, with the new change, Google Chrome will start showing it as six tabs which is the “correct” number. With Google Chrome 106, the shell of Tab Groups will be overlooked while counting the accurate number of open tabs.
Users should note that 99 is the maximum number of tabs that Chrome can show and with no Tab Groups shield the number is easily attainable, especially who use the Android app regularly.
The report also mentioned that Google Chrome is also beta testing Journeys for Android. This is a method that helps Google to organise topic-based sites and searches automatically.

This feature will appear as a new tab on the History page which is hardly noticeable. Users can even completely disable this feature from the overflow menu.
