We will be using the Google Chrome browser for this task. Google Chrome is the most popular web browser and most probably you already have it installed on your computer and phone. Before we start, first make sure that you have logged in with the same Google account on both devices.

1. Open the Chrome app.
2. Tap the menu button (three dots at the top-right corner of the screen).
3. Click the Recent Tabs option.

If you have connected your phone to your PC via USB tethering or mobile hostpot, then you can send web pages with another method in which you just have to make a few clicks. First, right-click on the webpage you want to send. After that, you will find an option like Send to *your device name*. Click on this option and then you will receive a notification on your phone to open the webpage.
