How do I retrieve closed tabs in Safari on my iPhone?

Apple deleted all my tabs (iPhone 11)

I had really important info on each of my tabs while just scrolling on safari as usual.

Then, a black screen appeared for 3 seconds like it was shutting down and then it went back to normal mode, and all of my safari tabs were COMPLETELY gone. Just why?? My storage was not full at all, I don’t see why this could’ve happened.

Please help.

Lost all my safari tabs I have lost all my safari tabs, the ones I have open on my phone, this happened 3 times. What is the problem here? I close 1 tab and open 1 new tab, then the search bar disappears and all open tabs also disappear. And it's not in the tab closing history either. Simply everything just disappears for no reason, and I've had this happen 3 times, important tabs I haven't saved yet. In addition, there are keyboard errors in the appstore, errors not being able to enter the main screen. In the past 2 years, ios has more bugs. I've been using ios for 10 years but recently it's not working anymore So sad. Can’t upload video here

Safari tabs and history gone I suddenly opened my safari and all my tabs were gone. I didn’t close them at all. This also never happened before, all my tabs were always there whenever i’d open Safari. Both public and private tabs are gone. And all the history on Safari as well (when I searched for a tab in recently closed, nothing showed. It was blank). I don’t know how that happened. How can I get my tabs back?? Thank you. For info, i have an iPhone 11 with iOS 17.4.1

Restoring full previous Safari tabs on iPad I just don’t understand why Apple won’t ad Restore All Tabs for Previous Session to Safari on iPad and iPhone iOS when you accidentally close all tabs . Especially now that the 500 tab limit has been removed. And why is the close all tabs button even there or in such an easy to press location. Firefox, Chrome,DuckDuckGo,Opera all have this… chrome can even backup to email notes. As a heavy apple user. This has to be the biggest frustration feature in my user experience. Please resolve this. Unless anyone else has a solution.
