Google has embedded a search bar into the three-dot menu in Chrome Canary, allowing users to find settings, bookmarks, and history by name. The feature is currently experimental and may not reach the stable version.

Anthropic's AI model, during closed Frontier Red Team trials, independently developed five exploits against Chrome, Safari, Android, Windows, and Linux, including passwordless root server access. All vulnerabilities have already been patched.

Google has begun rolling out Gemini in Chrome for Android in the US: the assistant summarizes pages, works with Calendar, Keep, and Gmail, while AI Pro and Ultra subscribers got the Auto Browse agentic mode for multi-step tasks.

The Relay startup is shutting down in August 2026, and its team is moving to Google Chrome. CEO Jacob Bank will become Vice President of Product in the browser department.

Google has updated the Gemini Spark AI agent: it can now control your Chrome browser using saved passwords and accounts. The agent will be able to search for tickets and book accommodation, but your confirmation will be required for payments. The service is already available in 160 countries for AI Pro subscribers. 🤖✈️🌍
