Using iCloud Bookmark Extension on Windows
Safari doesn’t work on Windows, but iCloud does. So with the help of both the iCloud app and the iCloud Bookmarks extension, you can easily sync your Safari bookmarks to Chrome on your PC. You can then sync them to Chrome for iOS using Chrome Sync.
But before you do that, you need to make sure that Safari is set to sync with iCloud. The steps below will help you do everything in the proper order.
Step 1: Open Settings > Profile name > iCloud > Show All > Enable access to Safari.
Step 2: Download and install the iCloud Bookmarks extension for Chrome via the Chrome Web Store.
Step 3: Download and install iCloud for Windows on your PC.
Step 4: Sign in to the iCloud app using your Apple ID. It must be the same as the one used on your iPhone or iPad.
Step 5: After signing in, click the Options button next to Bookmarks > Select Chrome > Click Apply.
Step 6: Restart your computer. Afterward, head back into Chrome, and then click on the iCloud Bookmarks extension next to the URL bar. You should see a confirmation that your bookmarks are now in sync with iCloud.
That means your Safari bookmarks stored within iCloud are now downloaded to your PC. You can then confirm that by opening the Chrome Bookmarks Manager.
Open Chrome on your iPhone and iPad, sign in with the same Google Account as the one on your PC (if you haven’t already). Chrome Sync will kick in, and you should see your Safari bookmarks waiting for you.
You can now decide whether to keep the iCloud app around on your PC or not. Having it around does offer the benefit of continuous bookmark syncing between both Chrome and Safari (via the iCloud Bookmarks extension) on your iPhone or iPad. That should come in quite handy if you intend to use both browsers regularly.
Tip: Refer to our post if iCloud sync is not working on Windows 11.
Import to Safari and Sync via iCloud on Mac
On a Mac, all you have to do is install Chrome, import your bookmarks from Safari (which are synced from your iOS device via iCloud), and then use Chrome Sync to get them to Chrome on your iPhone or iPad.
But rather than jumping straight into the action, you must confirm first that Safari syncing with iCloud is active on both your iOS device and Mac.
Step 1: On your iPhone and iPad, open Settings > Profile name > iCloud > Show All > Enable access to Safari.
Step 2: On your Mac, open Settings > Profile name > iCloud > Show More Apps > Enable Safari.
Step 3: On the Chrome browser, sign in with the same Google Account as the one used on Chrome for iOS.
Step 4: Go to Settings > Import bookmark and settings.
Step 5: Select Safari using the drop-down menu > Check the box next to Favorites/Bookmarks > Click Import.
And that’s it. Fire up Chrome on your iPhone and iPad, sign in with your Google Account (if you haven’t already), and you should see your bookmarks right away.
