Browsers Technologies / / December 19, 2019
More and more people use their mobile device not only for communication, but also for Internet surfing. But a large part of the web page is still only optimized for monitors with large diagonals. As a result of such a site visitor sees on the screen of your smartphone or tablet hodgepodge of advertising, design elements, and moved down layout. Can solve this problem by using a special reader mode, hidden in the depths of the experimental mobile Google Chrome settings.
Reading mode only recently appeared in the mobile versions of Safari and Firefox, so Chrome also I decided not to lag behind its main competitors. But as long as this function is tested, so it is hidden from the eyes of ordinary users. When using read-mode content of the page is cleansed of all extraneous elements, and only the text remains in front of us with the illustrations, that is something for which we, in fact, come to the site. As such, nothing prevents us and does not distract from the reading.
To activate the reader mode, you need to go to the page of the experimental browser settings. To do this, enter the address in the address bar
chrome: // flags. After you read the warning about the need to observe caution, you can run through the page to find the right settings. It's called "Display icons" Reading View "toolbar" and is located approximately in the middle. After activating this function, you need to restart the browser.As a result, you performed transactions near the browser's address bar will be a new button that is responsible for the inclusion of the reader mode. Please note that this button is not visible on all web pages, but only on those where this mode can be used. For example, on the home page, which displays news and announcements published articles, it will not be seen, and on the page with a separate article it appears.
Thus, through the use of this method of browsing, we have a convenient way to weed out all the excess and focus only on the text of the articles and images. The only drawback is that the knife reader mode gets all the media content without exception, so watch the video on the page will not work.
