About
Google Chrome is a web browser made by Google. It was released for Windows in 2008, with Mac and Linux versions following, and later apps for Android and iOS. It is built on the open source Chromium project, which also powers Microsoft Edge, Opera, Brave and other browsers.
Chrome syncs bookmarks, passwords, history and open tabs across devices when people sign in with a Google account. It has a built in password manager, tab groups, a translation feature and a store of extensions that add features to the browser. Safe Browsing warns users about sites known to host malware or phishing pages. Google releases a new version roughly every four weeks.
Chrome is free. It is the default browser on most Android phones and on Chromebooks, which run ChromeOS. On iOS it uses the WebKit engine, as Apple requires for all browsers there. Chrome has the largest share of the browser market worldwide, and web developers often test their sites in it first. Its developer tools are used to inspect pages, debug JavaScript and check performance.
