Google now rolling out Chrome 78 update on Windows with several new features
Google yesterday announced that they have promoted Chrome 78 to the stable
channel for Windows, Mac and Linux. This new update comes with several new
features, improvements and bug fixes. You can find the summary of new
improvements below:
Click-to-call:
With the new “click-to-call” feature, you can right click any phone number you
find on the web and send it directly to your Android device. On your Android
device, you will receive a Chrome notification, tapping the notification will
enter the number in your phone app.
More customization options for New Tab page:
Until now, Chrome allowed users to set a background or theme from the Chrome
Web Store for New Tag page. With this update, customization is now offered in
three ways: Background, Shortcuts and Color & Theme.
Redesigned tooltip for tabs:
When you hover over a tab, instead of displaying the web page title text in a
thin strip, Chrome now displays the content in a bubble overlay UI.
Password checkup extension:
Early this year, Google released a Chrome extension called Password Checkup
that helps you protect your accounts from third party data breaches. After
installing this extension, wherever you sign-in, if you enter a username and
password which are already compromised in a data breach, you will receive a
warning to reset your password. This extension will be soon integrated inside
Chrome 78 browser.
Check for updates in the Chrome browser to download this new update.
