I reinstalled macOS on my iMac in preparation for Big Sur and the iCloud tab issue is now starting to occur. Good news is apple has tagged this issue being reported multiple times on the feedback tool so hopefully they roll out a fix soon!

Thanks a lot. Let’s hope Apple fix it soon. Where can I leave my feedback to them?

Had the same issue, thought it was something crazy on my end. Glad it seems to be widespread, just hope Apple will fix it soon.

I updated to iOS 14, and Safari 14.0 on Catalina. Let's hope this fixes the issue.

I’ve also been having this issue with my work 16” Macbook pro.... but not my iMac strangely. Both running 10.15.6

Theres another thread about this on the Big Sur forum. https://forums.macrumors.com/threads/duplicate-devices-in-icloud-tabs.2245793/

Reddit: https://www.reddit.com/r/MacOS/comments/hyfqy4

I am most definitely seeing this as well even today on 10.15.7 with Safari 13. Only my macOS system does this; the iOS device I have (still on iOS 13) don't do this at all.

I am also having this issue after installing Big Sur. It does not go away even after rolling back to Catalina.

I also have the problem of it not disappearing when clearing the tab and reloading safari on iOS. It just accumulates every tab I’ve opened in the past few days.

Is this happening after you installed big sur on any of your devices .

Sold my MacBook to make way for the new one. On my iPad and iPhone the tabs are syncing very very slow. A lag of around 2 days.

Hi all,

So I see this problem is not only on my side here. I have Little Snitch installed and thought that was the culprit, and been revising every single rule that I have a couple of times now and couldn't find any problems.
Reading this article....pffff

My issue: I get former open tabs on my iPhone but my MacBook Pro keeps empty. I'm on the latest versions for all devices. The last response here is from Nov. 2020, did you guys manage to solve this issue or is it still out there haunting us?
