Request from May 30, 2022, by email:

Hi the developers team of the Wikipedia app,

I really enjoy using the app so far. However, the other day, I came across a problem where I open a ton of tabs in one device (device A). When the device A's charging, I want to use another device (device B) to continue reading on Wikipedia but the opening tabs from the other device (device A) aren't synchronised to device B so I think it would be great if the app can synchronise opening tabs between devices.

I know that I can manually save each tab to my saved list and have it synchronised to other devices but the problem is I opened too many tabs and it would waste quite a while to save them all (as I'm reading an article and there are links to other concepts that I don't know so I just kept opening new tabs).

Anyways, it's just a small suggestion for the reader's/user's convenience. It's okay if the feature didn't get to be implemented.

Thank you for your time.

Best regards

(synchronizing history would automatically create the same "because you read" cards.
