Google Chrome’s new version is here. The Chrome 105 offers a set of new features and a few fixes that can improve your experience and provide better security.
Chrome launches a new version after every 4 weeks. The Chrome 105 does not bring changes that the users can easily notice. But these changes will help users in many ways.
The update is available for Windows, iOS as well as Linux. Most of the features offer new API capabilities or development assistance.
What’s new:
1. Picture-in-picture (PiP) on mobile: PiP allows you to continue watching videos in a floating window while you visit other websites or applications. Chrome on desktop already offers this feature from a long time with the help of a simple extension.
