New Delhi : As Google celebrates the 10th anniversary of Chrome, the tech giant has come up with the latest version of Google Chrome browser. Named as Chrome 69, the redesigned browser brings new icons, rounded shapes and new colour palette. And, the best part is that the new version is available for iOS, Android, Windows and Mac, as well.

“Today, in honour of Chrome’s 10th birthday, we’re launching several new features,” Rahul Roy Chowdhury, VP of Product Development at Google, stated in a blog post. “Our newest update includes a refreshed design that lets you navigate the web faster, and a completely revamped password manager and updated autofill so you can get things done more easily and securely. And Chrome’s search box (the “Omnibox”) gives you more information directly as you type, saving you even more time”.

It was on September 2, 2008 that Google introduced Chrome browser to us and since then, it has become the world’s most popular browser beating the likes of Microsoft’s Internet Explorer (IE) and Mozilla’s Firefox. Coming to the newly released version, let’s share all that is new with Chrome 69.

  • Google Chrome 69 has come up with “more rounded shapes, new icons, and a new color palette”
  • On iOS, the toolbar has been moved to the bottom, closer to where thumbs are.
  • Users can now customise the “New Tab” page with an uploaded background image or a Google collection
  • The Chrome 69 has an improved search bar known as the Omnibox which can now show more information without needing to open a new tab. The search bar can displays results for the weather, public figures, translations, and answers to your questions.
  • Chrome 69 has improved password manager. Now, when you sign up for new sites it will recommend a strong password. This password will be saved in the built-in password manager so that the next time you visit that site it automatically fills the account credentials.
  • The new browser focuses on AI and Machine Learning to make your browsing experience much safer and productive.
