Google Chrome Is Testing a New Tab UI on Android

Google Chrome is zero if non absolutely insane with all the UI and feature tweaks the company keeps testing in its Android app. The browser added tab grouping in the Android app recently, and further back in the twenty-four hour period, Google had started testing the new 'Duet' functionality in the app that brought the browser's UI to the lesser, making it easier to admission.

Now, in an effort to make the Chrome browser'southward UI more clean, the company is reportedly testing a new UI alter that integrates the tab grouping UI with the Duet redesign in Chrome Dev and Canary.

First reported by 9to5Google, the new characteristic can exist enabled in Chrome Dev and Canary builds by enabling a Chrome flag "Duet-TabStrip Integration". The clarification for this flag states that it "Allows users to access integration of Duet and TabStrip."

We tried accessing the new UI in Chrome Dev and Canary on Android phones in our office but the new UI didn't show upwards for usa. Withal, based on screenshots shared by 9to5Google, with the new flag enabled, Chrome hides the tab-group UI inside the tab push in the toolbar. It can be made visible by long pressing on the tab push, and comes upward as a floating toolbar higher up the bottom toolbar in Chrome. There's also a button to hide the tab group UI if needed.

While the new UI looks cleaner, information technology does add an extra interaction to get to the group of tabs y'all have open on your smartphone, which doesn't feel similar the all-time fashion to go most it specially considering that tab groups should prove most useful to people who have a lot of tabs open on their phones and are looking for an easier way to manage them.
