Personally, I wouldn't care about having an icon at all, so much as just having sycned history in general, but for those who want the distinction, I think this would suffice. If you really wanted more clarity on where the history item is coming from, you could have a little desktop icon for when you're looking at synced history items on mobile, and a little mobile icon on synced history items when viewing history on desktop.

Now, if you're using Orion on multiple desktops/mobile devices, I'm not sure how you would distinguish that... but I feel like my suggestion is enough, at least as a start.

    Any update on this? Really the only feature keeping me from using Orion as my primary browser!

      only feature keeping me from using Orion as my primary browser

      can you guys agree which is really the "one" feature so we can fix it. AS by looking on this board it looks like there are 2,000 such issues 🙂

          Vlad i swear this is the only post where i have commented such a thing 🥲 Other than that, there are a few bugs with ios browser which annoys me but yea other than that, a pretty great browsing experience.

              It may be your only comment, but 100th time I read about "only feature" preventing someone from using Orion.

                  Vlad There are hundreds of tiny quirks and bugs that stop people from using the browser. Every tiny thing counts for most people just like an engineered product that is tested to withstand environmental pressures and wear and tear. Consistency is key in the metal of a pen for example. Or a vacuum for this regard.

                      Orion wether it's on Mac or iOS is almost the perfect app.
                      But I do miss the history syncing that's available on Chrome, Firefox or Vivaldi (and I guess most other browsers). It is so convenient to enter the first letter of an address you visited using iOS, being proposed once you use the browser on Mac.

                      Is it something planned ? Or even possible using iCloud ?
                      The other browsers use a proprietary system (with the creation of an account).

                      This is the only missing feature that prevents me to use Orion as my default browser on both Mac and iOS (such great pieces of software)

                          Is this feature working properly for people? My history still doesn't sync at all between devices (all Sync and iCloud permissions are enabled in both devices).

                            tothika It is not implemented yet (as indicated by status being ''planned')

                              Merged 15 posts from Opt-in history sync across all devices.

                                Is there any way to sync Orion bewteen devcies? (not just tabs and bookmarks but the overall configuration...

                                • Profiles
                                • Bookmarks
                                • Preferences (If I can remember them?)
                                • Extensions, etc. (Safari, Chrome and I think Firefox do this).

                                This would be really nice and attract new users as it would lower the barrier to adoption.

                                Once user's adtopt, it would aleviate having to make certain changes across all their devices so that it is seamless to move from one device to the other. Either just sync and assume users want things the same across devices, or ask them if they want certain changes (e.g. Extensions) to sync across devices.

                                This is so far, my biggest complain about Orion which is otherwise impressing me so far.

                                I want the changes I make (described previously) to stay in sync across devices. Many people hae at least two devices. I have four devices I use regularly and that probably isn't uncommon (iPhone, iPad, desktop, laptop).

                                  Apologies, didn't see extensions and so on, which I don't think are available through iCloud sync.

                                    mbierman There is an existing feature suggest for these, can you find it so that I can merge it?

                                          I would very much like to be able to sync all my profiles - or just one, or just two. I would like to truly be in control of them.
