Chrome finally adds a better way to handle multiple open tabs

After years of resistance, Google Chrome will finally adopt vertical tabs – a feature that has recently become popular with a Arc Browser, first to AI Browser Dia. Google he announced On Tuesday, Chrome users will have the option to allow vertical tabs, which will move the tabs to the side of the browser window, to make it easier to read page titles and manage tab groups.

When enabled, vertical tabs will remain fixed until the user changes them again.

The company is adding support for vertical tabs along with a refreshing version of Reading Mode, its distraction-free, text-based reading experience.

Updates show how greater competition from modern browsers it has affected the development of Chrome, as well as hindering the attractiveness of competitors to differentiate their browsers with features that Chrome does not have.

The company notes that the new vertical tabs can be enabled at any time by right-clicking on a Chrome window and selecting “Show Tabs Vertically.” The company says there is no hard limit on the number of tabs that can be opened (beyond what would be limited by the user’s device). Vertical tabs work like horizontal tabs, meaning you can have Chrome windows with tabs or groups of them.

People who prefer vertical tabs are power users or researchers who always have many tabs open in their browser and often have trouble finding the right tabs when things get busy. This is especially true if you tend to open multiple tabs from the same page, with the same favicon.

This is not the first time that Google has tried to put tabs on the side of the browser. The company tried the look ten years agobut it was not developed from beta. But this time, development has happened he went forwardand savvy users are already done lighting the way by supporting flags in the latest builds of Chrome. Apparently, Google’s decision to move forward was influenced by the interest of other browsers, such as Arc and others from AI developers, who hope to persuade Chrome users to switch.

In recent months, Chrome has been busy rolling out updates, including to inform The combination of Gemini AI, auto filland a Split View modeand announcing a quick release schedule.

The company says vertical tabs are slowly rolling out to users in all markets.

Along with the introduction of vertical tabs, Chrome is also introducing a new reading method, which will provide a full page view to make it easier to reduce the distraction of the screen to focus on the text.

This will be a permanent update for Chrome users, and it will come at a time when websites, especially those on the news page, are filled with ads and encourage subscriptions to newsletters.

Ironically, the problems faced by the movie industry that led to a huge increase in sales are related to the fact that Google is driving the car. Less cars for publishers where AI is concentrated.
