Google has introduced five new features for the Chrome browser in order to improve the search experience for Android and iOS users. For those unaware, the company keeps enhancing its browser with new features and designs to improve the overall user experience. Here are the top 5 features that the California-based tech giant has added.
Among these are revised address bars for easier navigation and new shortcuts for local search results. Most importantly, the new "Chrome Actions" function will help users save time when interacting with locals, such as a nearby company. Users will find the new "˜Chrome Actions' function particularly helpful when trying to interact with locales, such as a nearby corporation.
"For example, when you search for a restaurant, you'll see shortcut buttons in the search results to quickly do things like call, get directions and read reviews," the company said.
This feature, which is now present in Chrome on Android, will also be added to Chrome on iOS in the upcoming months. Google modified the Chrome address bar to take advantage of the larger screens found on iPads and Android tablets.
With Chrome for Android and iOS, the address bar now has a personalised touch thanks to a new feature that suggests shortcuts based on users' usual typing patterns.
"You'll now see trending search suggestions in your Chrome address bar on iOS, a feature already available on Android," the company said. Finally, Live sports cards are now available in Chrome's Discover Feed on the iOS and Android New Tab tab.
"So when your favourite team is playing, you'll get automatic updates on how the game is going if you've followed the team or expressed interest in it in the past," Google said.
