Syncing tabs / Sending tabs to another device

There is just one reason why I'm not able to migrate from FF to Edge Chromium: Syncing tabs or sending tabs to another device is not yet implemented! Is it already on the roadmap?

    A supplementary answer to your question, you can use the Share function in the Edge insider browser And the Your Phone app on your mobile phone to send tabs and links to your devices.

     

    This way is different from browser syncing and can be used right now

     

    These instructions are from Edge insider Version 79.0.301.0 (Official build) canary (64-bit)

     

    Step 1, click on the Ellipsis menu on the top-right corner of your browser

     

     

    Step 2 - select Your Phone app from the list

     

     

    Step 3

     

    Step 4

     

     

    Let me know how it goes,

    here is the official help regarding the Your Phone app

Michael_Buchner I would really like to see this functionality too. I use Firefox explicitly for this reason. It would be great if I could do this through Edge. The function I most want is the ability to send a tab from Edge on Android to Edge on the desktop (or any other Android/Windows device where I have Edge installed).
