Chrome for iOS cannot export HTML directly; sync your bookmarks to Chrome on a desktop computer, then export to HTML there.

The iOS Sandbox Barrier

Due to Apple’s sandboxing requirements on iOS and iPadOS, Chrome for iPhone does not provide an “Export Bookmarks” button or file generator within the mobile browser settings.

The 3-Step Desktop Sync Workaround

  1. On your iPhone, open Chrome → Settings → Sync and verify that Bookmarks sync is enabled with your Google Account.
  2. Open Google Chrome on your Mac or Windows PC and log into the same account.
  3. Open Bookmark Manager (Cmd+Option+B on Mac, Ctrl+Shift+O on Windows), click the three dots, and select “Export bookmarks”.
