Description of the issue:
Thos has only happened a couple of times to me but after an android update all existing tabs that i had open 50+ all dissappear. Some that haven’t been refreshed in a long time but that i still wanted available.

How can this issue be reproduced?

1.I Believe after an android update but not all of them just the most recent one

2.using Brave 1.68.137, Chromium 127.0.6533.100

Expected result:
all tabs that were open pre update would be availablepost update

Brave Version( check About Brave):
Brave 1.68.137, Chromium 127.0.6533.100

Mobile Device details
Galaxy S20 FE
Model - SM-G781U

Android Version 13

Additional Information:

Is there a way to “capture all tabs” that “Bookmarks” all current tabs. Into a single bookmark sbapshot that can be reactivated with one bookmark?

The issue with just history is that some sites are accessed hourly, some daily, some weekly, and some monthly, others i can browse for an hour and attempting to go back through the full history to try and find alll the pages would take a Looooog time.

Unfortunately issues like this are hard to diagnose due to them being sporadic/inconsistent. I will see if anyone on Android team knows what causes this.

Yes, you can do this. On Android, tap the square to display all your tabs. Tap the three dots icon on the bottom right, then Select tabs. Either manually select the tabs you want to bookmark, or you can tap the three dots icon on the top right and Select all tabs.

Once the appropriate tabs are selected, tap Bookmark tabs:

All of my tabs & grouped tabs just vanished a few minutes ago. I had many hundreds of important tabs, all gone. “Recent Tabs” doesnt show much. Total bummer. I think this happened to me once before many years ago. I dont think I did an update to cause this, unless the update was automatic. Not sure if I should open a new topic/thread or not, but this title seems related.

The last this happened was Oct 2019, the Brave Community couldnt help me then, I hope they can figure out what happened now. This REALLY stinks. Here is a link to the same prob from 2019.:point_down::point_down::point_down:

After I watched a YT video, I played a game. Did the same thing hundreds of times before with no issue. I had several hundred tabs & grouped tabs, all gone in a blink of an eye.

This is what “Recent Tabs” looks like…

This is my History when the tab deletion occurred…

My only tab now…
