Swipe Through Safari Tabs in iOS 16

Before you try this tip, make sure that you have more than one open Safari tab on your iPhone. Since this new Safari tab layout is an iOS 16 feature, if you have an earlier software version you will need to update to iOS 16 before using this tip.

  1. Open Safari on your iPhone.

    Open Safari app

     
  2. Swipe from left to right to see the previous tab.

    Swipe left to right

     
  3. Swipe from right to left to see the next tab.

    Swipe right to left

And that's it! You can swipe through as many tabs as you have open in Safari on your iPhone, and you can even open a new tab in Safari by swiping all the way to the right, past the right-most tab!
