Google Chrome: Google's Chrome browser gets new features, now you will get split view and more..
Google on Thursday announced new productivity-focused improvements for its Google Chrome browser. The Mountain View-based tech giant says these changes are aimed at helping everyday and enterprise users manage tabs more efficiently and complete tasks faster. These updates include a new tab organization tool called Split View, which displays two tabs simultaneously. Chrome is also getting annotation features, allowing users to highlight text and add notes to PDFs.
New Features in Google Chrome
The first significant change in Google Chrome is Split View. As the name suggests, it allows users to view two tabs simultaneously in a single Chrome window. Instead of manually resizing individual browser windows, users can right-click on a tab and select the Split View option to pair it with another open tab. Google explained in a blog post that the browser will then automatically arrange both pages on the screen.
According to the company, Split View aims to make it easier to compare documents and reference notes while creating content, or to work on multiple web apps simultaneously without manually resizing the window. This feature has been in testing for the past few months, and some users were able to access it before the official announcement.
Google has also updated Chrome's built-in PDF viewer with annotation capabilities. This allows users to highlight text, add comments, and mark up PDF documents. The tech giant says that users will now see an annotation toolbar when opening PDFs in the browser, allowing them to highlight text, draw, add comments, or perform basic markup without downloading the file.
The third addition is the Save to Google Drive feature. By definition, it enables users to quickly store files and PDFs from Google Chrome to their Drive account. They can save content directly to the cloud with just a few clicks, eliminating the need to download files locally and upload them separately.
According to the company, the file is uploaded to the user's linked Google Drive account, where it can be accessed across devices in a separate Save from Chrome folder, simplifying cloud-based workflows and reducing local storage usage.
Google says these features are rolling out to the latest Chrome version on desktop platforms. These features are part of a phased rollout and may take some time to reach all users.
