I searched for this recently and the current set of questions and answers on stack overflow did have the answers but they were hard to find and so I felt they could be consolidated. This question is just about "window" tabs introduced in xcode 4, this question is ambiguous, and this question just seems to be about the library window.

There are now two types of tab in Xcode, "main" tabs along the top of the window and "sub" tabs within the editor areas within the window. What are the default keyboard shortcuts for switching / changing between them?

Xcode 11, 12, 13+

The "main" tabs (which were just normal tabs in previous versions of Xcode) are called "window" tabs, and the new in-editor area "sub" tabs are just "tabs".

Action Shortcut
Go one window tab right: Ctrl + Tab
Go one window tab left Ctrl + Shift + Tab
Go one navigator tab right Cmd + } or (Command + Shift + ])
Go one navigator tab left Cmd + { or (Command + Shift + [)

The menu commands for switching window tabs can be found in the Window menu, and those for navigator tabs in the Navigate menu.

Older Xcodes

There were just plain old tabs like Safari / Finder.

Action Shortcut
Go one editor tab right Cmd + } or (Command + Shift + ])
Go one editor tab left Cmd + { or (Command + Shift + [)
