Just curious more than anything. Why is it when you already have 500 tabs open that when you open a link it opens in safari but, when you close the new tab the number of tabs goes down? No way of telling if it’s closed a previous tab as it doesn’t appear when you hold down the plus sign for recently closed tabs? So where did the extra tab actually go?
thanks

Tbh the phone runs absolutely fine with this many tabs open, I am just curious why the number goes down? I actually think it’s just set up that way as it doesn’t look like any of the original tabs have gone? Just think it’s weird that the number would go down even when it should still be on 500?
just to clarify I mean if you have 500 tabs open, open said link and it opens another tab, clear the link tab and the number of tabs still goes to 499? Thanks
Every open tab uses memory, and when the phone runs out of memory it starts closing things. It’s rather pointless to have 500 tabs open; I’m amazed that the phone even works with that many tabs.
