No more will you have to recreate the bookmarks that you have on your computer on your Tab, or vice versa. When you’re on your Tab, when you add (or delete) a bookmark, that bookmark is also added to the bookmark on Chrome on your computer—and when you’re on your computer and add or delete a bookmark, it’s added or deleted on your Tab.
Here’s how to do it:
Tap the Menu button, and then select Settings→General.
The browser’s General Settings screen appears.
Tap “Sync with Google Chrome.”
A screen appears that lets you perform the sync.
Tap “Add bookmarks to Google Account.”
If you instead want to delete the existing bookmarks on your Tab, tap “Delete bookmarks.” And if you’re feeling squeamish about the whole thing (no reason to, though—buck up!), tap Cancel.
Tap Next.
You get a confirmation of the step you’re about to take—for example, deleting the bookmarks on the Tab and synchronizing with your main Google account. Tap Done.
