How To: Using Spaces to organize your tabs

What are spaces and what are their benefits? #

Spaces are a way to organize the tabs you’re browsing. An easy way to think of them is as a collection of tabs.

Spaces were designed with the help of the community that used Command Browser 1. The key feature that was requested for 2.0 was a way to manage tabs that can get overwhelming. Spaces were designed as a solution to help wrangle tabs.

How can I use spaces? #

Spaces are fairly deep feature of Browser and there are a few places you can go to use them.

While Browsing

While browsing, you’ve got the option to long press a tab and choose the space to open it in. To do this, long press a link you’d like to open and tap the > Open In Space option in the menu that appears. Finally – choose the space you’d like to put the tab into.

All tabs that are opened without selecting a space get added to the current space you’re in.

Switching between Spaces

When first using Command Browser, you start off in the Main Space. To switch between spaces, choose the Spaces button and then choose the space you’d like to enter.

What are the suggested use cases for it? #

A great use case to try for spaces is a focused internet browsing session.

Take planning for a movie night for example.
The suggested steps for this workflow:

1. Create a Space for Movie Night
2. Create a tab and browse the internet and find articles about movies
3. Add the articles as tabs in the background to the space
4. Start your focused browsing session for Movie Night
