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

HotCakeXwhat about sending a tab from PC to tablet, does it work to? Edge on Android is able to send the tab to any device, Edge on PC seems to support sending to my phone only.

When Open tab syncing will be available, it will be possible to do that.
but as of now, it's still unavailable even in Canary channel
