Chrome got a new permission panel
Miscellaneous / / August 01, 2021
Google developers talked about the innovations of the 92nd version of the browser.
Convenient permission system
The site you visit may ask for microphone, location, and camera access. In the new version of Chrome, this has become much easier to track. Now, if you just touch the lock icon on the left side of the Chrome address bar, a new panel will appear with all the permissions for a specific site.
From there, you can quickly allow or disallow listening to you, filming or tracking your location. In the next update, the developers will add the ability to remove a site from the browsing history in Chrome.
The updated site controls are already appearing in Chrome on Android smartphones and tablets, and will later appear on other platforms.
New Chrome Actions
Chrome Actions is a quick and easy way to perform an action right from the address bar of your browser. For example, if you type “delete history” or “change passwords”, you can access these options with one click. Since their appearances in November 2020, they became quite popular, and now their capabilities are expanding.
New Chrome Actions let you manage your privacy and security. Just enter "security check" to check the security of passwords or scan your browser for malicious extensions. You can also enter “manage security settings” or “manage sync” to quickly access the corresponding settings.
Improved site isolation and phishing detection
Site isolation, which allows each resource to be handled separately, will now cover a wider range of sites as well as extensions. Along with this, improvements are being introduced that significantly speed up the work of Chrome - detection phishing will now run 50 times faster and use much less power, which is especially true for laptops.
