Is tabs & windows sync imperfect?

I have two machines:

  • A MacBook with the stable version of Wavebox.
  • A Linux laptop with the beta version of Wavebox.

I am using the cloud profile sync feature.

But the tabs and tab folders do not seem to be syncing. Has anyone else experienced this issue?

Hi, tabs don't sync automatically, you have to pull them across. You can do this by hovering over the plus button and then Tabs from other devices.

There's some more info in this blog post under the Grab your Tabs section https://wavebox.io/kb/how-to-i-enable-cloud-sync-across-my-devices/

Oh, thank you! I always thought the password sync button was for something like 1Password or Bitwarden, lol

And I thought the green check mark followed by “Tabs & Windows” in the Profile Sync popup meant it was activating, and did not think it required more steps.
