When you browse on a mobile device like your iPhone or iPad, it’s possible for you to have multiple tabs open at once. Typically you may be used to touching the Tabs button and navigating between those tabs from that menu, but your iPad can actually show a tab bar at the top of the window that you can use to navigate as well.
This tab bar consists of small gray rectangles below the address bar that identify each of the open tabs. By pressing one of those rectangles you can switch to that tab. But if you aren’t seeing that tab bar, or if you would like to remove it so that you can see more of your Web pages on the screen, then our guide below will show you how to make that change.
