iPad Safari Tabs on iPad not stacking on iOS 11

[emulajavi]

Hi,

On iOS 10 when you pressed on the ‘show all open tabs’ icon in Safari, tabs were grouped by website, up to a maximum of 3 per group.

Now on iOS 11, not only hasn’t that maximum increased to better group the tabs, but now, no tabs are grouped so if you have many tabs open it has become more difficult to search through them.

Do you think it’s a bug or a purposely removed feature?

Thank you!

I assumed it was purposely removed.

It is deliberate. It matches the app switcher which now does not stack.
I don’t mind the change but it would be good if there was a toggle in settings to switch stacking on/off.
There is the search feature but I realise this would be inconvient to always rely on.
