Chrome Features

Chrome has a number of different features that make browsing the Internet easy and convenient. Below are some of the features of Chrome:

• Security:
  Chrome has a variety of tools to help you stay safe online. Chrome is constantly updated, so you're always protected from malware and phishing. For example, Chrome will show you a warning if a page is potentially dangerous.

• Customization:
  Although Google Chrome's design is very simple, the Chrome Web Store makes it easy to customize with web apps, themes, and extensions.

• Translation:
  Whenever you visit a foreign website, Chrome will automatically offer to translate it into your native language. The translation won't always be perfect, but this opportunity opens the door to millions of sites that you wouldn't have even visited before.

Download and install Google Chrome

On the computer

For an ordinary user, in order to update Google Chrome to the latest version from the official website, simply restart the computer. The update package, in this case, is installed automatically, and you don’t have to do anything.

However, if you rarely turn off your computer, our instructions on how to update Google Chrome on your computer manually will come in handy.

Updating Google Chrome to the latest version in Russian is available free of charge - regardless of whether it is installed automatically or manually.

On Windows 10 and other supported operating systems, it's very easy to tell when your browser needs an update. In the upper right corner of the screen there are three dots that open the settings menu. They are precisely the indicator that you need to focus on. If a new version has been released and you are in no hurry to install it, the three dots will change color.

• Orange – four days
• Red – seven days

To update Google Chrome on a laptop or computer with Windows 10, 8 and 7, do this:

• Open your browser and click on the three dots icon in the upper right corner

• And then click "Restart"

There are nuances that relate to installing packages on different operating systems:

Sign in to Chrome

One of the most powerful features of Chrome is the ability to log in (login). Authorization allows you to access your bookmarks, saved passwords, history and settings from any computer with Internet access and even from some mobile devices.

To be able to sign into Chrome, you need to first create your Google account. We recommend studying lessons and.

Chrome for mobile devices

Chrome can also be used as a browser for mobile devices. It is available for both iOS and Android devices. The Chrome app lets you browse the web, open multiple tabs, search, and more. You can even sign into Chrome on your mobile device. This will allow you to sync bookmarks, saved passwords, history and settings across all your devices.

In the Google Chrome browser, each user can have their own profile. The user profile includes all your browser settings - extensions, passwords, bookmarks, browsing history, etc.

By using your browser, installing new extensions, making bookmarks, changing settings, you are constantly changing the contents of your browser profile. Therefore, it is important to save all changes made in the browser.

To do this, the Google Chrome browser implements synchronization of all your data with the Google server in real time.

All your requests that you enter into the address bar (omnibox) are synchronized, and at this time all other Google Chrome browser settings are also synchronized.

This allows you to use the Google Chrome browser on multiple computers with all your settings. This is very convenient because if the Google Chrome browser is installed on another computer, you can use it. You will need to enter your profile account information into the browser.

To do this, you only need to add your Google Chrome profile in your browser settings. After this, synchronization will occur, and then you will be able to use the Google Chrome browser with all your settings.

Download instructions

How to download the Google Chrome browser to your phone? Since Google Chrome is compatible with all popular smartphone platforms, below you can find instructions for your device and install a modern browser.

On Android

from our website, follow the link below, but the most convenient way to do this is through the Play Market application store. To do this you need to do the following:

1. Go to Play Market from your phone.
2. At the top you will see a search bar, place the cursor and write the name of the program you are looking for - Chrome or Chromium.
3. Google Chrome will be displayed in the results presented, go in and click “Install”.
4. Next, confirm permission to make changes “Accept” and the download will begin automatically.

If you have not used the Play Market before, then first you need to log in to the system (through the settings in the upper right corner) using your Google mail account. There is no additional need to install the application. After the download is complete, the standard Chrome icon will appear on the screen in the list of all applications. All you have to do is launch it. Similarly, you can update your browser when a new version is released. As soon as it becomes available for download, instead of the “Install” button in the Play Market, “Update” will be displayed. After the update, no information is lost and the settings remain the same.

On iOS

For iPhone owners, you can also install the Google Chrome browser for free through the supporting application store - the App Store. If you want to switch from the built-in Safari browser to the faster and more powerful Google Chrome, then download it to your phone:

1. Access the App Store from your smartphone.
2. At the bottom of the panel with different buttons you will see an option for searching in the form of a magnifying glass.
3. Click on it and a search bar appears at the top.
4. Write the name of the program – Google Chrome and confirm your entry.
5. A list of applications with the same or similar name will appear on the screen, select the Chrome browser and click “Download”.
6. After a few seconds, the application will appear in the general menu.

On Windows Phone

You can also install Google Chrome on Nokia phones running the Windows Phone platform. The procedure is the same as for other smartphones through the Play Market or App Store, however, for Windows Phone platforms there is a special built-in store on the device - Microsoft Store or, as it is also called in Russified versions - “Store”. To do this, do the following:

1. Sign in to Microsoft Store.
2. Click on the search button and enter the name of the program at the top - Google Chrome.
3. In the presented list of products, select a browser and click “Download”, the download will start automatically and after a few seconds the application will be installed.

The Google Chrome browser is only compatible with the Windows Phone 8 and Windows Phone 10 operating systems; the program cannot be installed for earlier platforms. It is important for Windows Phone owners to know that Google has discontinued support for their operating system, so you will not be able to download the latest version, only the one available at the time of service termination. The downloaded version will be outdated, but will still function normally and fully. All the necessary functions will be available in it and you will not feel any special disadvantage. This condition eliminates the need to update the browser, since updates are not available for Windows Phone.

Synchronization in Google Chrome

To sync, you will need to create your account in the browser. To do this, you will need to enter your Gmail account information. After this, your account - profile will be added to the profile that already exists in the browser.

If you use your Google Chrome browser profile on someone else's computer, be sure to delete it after you finish using the browser. Otherwise, all your settings and personal data will become known to another person. The browser profile is not protected in any way and is accessible to any Google Chrome user.

Several users of the same browser can have their own Google Chrome profile. The Chrome browser supports simultaneous work with multiple accounts. Therefore, in the Google Chrome browser, you can create several accounts for different users of the same browser, each with their own individual settings.

Even if the operating system fails, your profile settings will be saved and you can restore them after synchronizing your Chrome account.
