The first step to open recently closed tabs in Safari on your iPhone is to access the “Recently Closed Tabs” feature. Here’s how to do it:
1. Open the Safari app on your iPhone.
2. Tap the “Tabs” button located at the bottom right corner of the screen. This button is represented by a square with multiple overlapping squares.

Step 3: Manage Recently Closed Tabs
If you have a long list of recently closed tabs, you might want to manage them to declutter your view. Here’s how to do it:
1. While viewing the “Recently Closed” tabs, swipe left on a tab you want to remove from the list.
