Send the tab you're on to your phone

Got a recipe, a map or an article open in Chrome and need it on your phone? A Current tab tag sends whatever's in Chrome's front tab on your PC to your Android phone. If it's a YouTube video, the time comes along too.

This one needs an NFC tag. There's no button for it in the app yet.

Writing a new tag: a pulsing ripple and "Hold a tag to the back of your phone", set to PC to phone and YouTube

Set it up once

Open My tagsIn Carrio on your phone, go to My tags and press Write a new tag.
Pick PC → Phone, then Current tabSmart works too, but it goes by what's playing, so for pages PC → Phone is the safer pick.
Hold a tag to the back of your phoneKeep it there until it buzzes, then stick it somewhere handy, like the edge of your desk.

And that's it. Tap it whenever there's a page you want on your phone.

For now Current tab lives on tags. The buttons in the app do YouTube.

Carrio or Chrome's Send to your devices?

Last checked: 12 October 2026

Chrome's Send to your devices compared with Carrio's Current tab tag
	Send to your devices	Current tab tag
Account	The same Google account in Chrome on both	None
What it sends	The link	The link, plus the time for a YouTube video
Effort	A few clicks in a menu	One tap on a tag
Directions	Both ways, between Chrome browsers	PC to phone

If you're signed in to Chrome everywhere already, Send to your devices works well. A tag is handy when you'd rather not sign in, or just want it on one tap.

Send to your devices not showing?

Google's help page has the details. These are the usual fixes:

Sign in to Chrome with the same Google account on both devices.
Turn sync on.
Update Chrome on both.
Give a new device a little while to show up.

Or skip the sign-in and use a Current tab tag.

Limits

It works with Chrome on your PC.
It sends the front tab only. If Carrio can't see the page you meant, bring its tab to the front and tap again.
It handles normal web pages, not Chrome's own pages (like Settings) or files on your PC.
It goes from PC to phone. For the other way, you can share a YouTube video from your phone to Carrio, and it opens on your PC. Other pages are coming.

Give it a go

It's free. You'll need a tag for this one, and any NTAG213 sticker does the job.
