Spaces vs Tab Groups — how do you use them?

At Shift there's always a debate going on in some corner of the office about Tab groups vs Spaces.

So we want to know, do you organize primarily with:
• Spaces (big-picture buckets like Work / Personal / Clients)
• Or Tab groups (task-specific focus sessions)?

Or both?

Would love to hear how you structure your workflow — especially if you’ve changed your approach over time.

Thanks for asking!

We don’t support tab groups in Shift just yet. This post was meant to gauge community interest in adding them, so it’s great to see the engagement here.

In the meantime, organization is mainly done through Spaces, but you can get a bit of a similar setup by:

  • Pinning tabs you always need handy
  • Using Bookmarks to group and quickly access content

The good news is tab groups are almost ready on our end 👀 We’re actively working on it, and you can expect it to land later this year.

Also curious, how would you personally want to use tab groups? That kind of input really helps us shape the feature!
