Google release Chrome 78: dark mood and much more

Google is rolling out the brand new model of Chrome for Mac, Windows, and Linux. Chrome 78 readies customization options for the New Tab web page, a nifty click on-to-call feature, and new tab overlays.

Announced last month Chrome will soon get more customization alternatives than just adding a background to the New Tab web page or using a subject from the Chrome Web Store. Accessible from the equal “Customize” button inside the bottom-proper corner of the New Tab web page, the “Background” choice remains unchanged. Google gives a gallery or you may add an image. “Shortcuts” confer with the grid of internet site favicons simply below the search bar. There are three opportunities:

My shortcuts: Shortcuts are cautioned based totally on web sites you go to frequently
Most visited sites: Shortcuts are curated by you
Hide shortcuts: Don’t display shortcuts on this web page
“Color and subject matter” helps you to select one among 23 preset themes, or release a shade picker to pick your very own and have Chrome create one. This characteristic isn’t always but widely rolled out.

Chrome is getting another cross-device sharing feature after Send this page widely rolled in September.

With “click-to-call,” you can right-click or highlight a phone number/link  like tel:0900-800-8000 to have it sent to your Android phone. A Chrome notification will appear and a tap dials the number.

Google’s Password Checkup extension from February will soon be integrated with Chrome 78.

A red Safe Browsing-like dialogue prompt will appear to advise users to change their password. This feature works without Google becoming aware of plain-text credentials.

If we detect that a username and password on a site you use is one of over 4 billion credentials that we know have been compromised, the extension will trigger an automatic warning and suggest that you change your password.
