The brand-new Chrome function was offered for me through the variation of the app you can get by means of TestFlight There are 2 methods to alter the place of the address bar. The most convenient is pushing and hanging on the bar, which raises a choice to change its position. You can likewise alter the bar’s place from Chrome’s settings. (A coworker in the UK wasn’t able to discover the setting, so it might not be presented for everybody on the TestFlight develop right now.)
We have actually asked Google if it prepares to bring this function to everybody who utilizes Chrome on iOS and if it’s concerning Android, too. The business has actually attempted it on Android prior to: in 2017, it explore a method to put the URL bar on the bottom in Chrome for Android however later on eliminated the function
I hope this function is presented extensively. As phone screens get ever-bigger, I believe it makes good sense to offer individuals the choice to make the address bar more available.
