Google unveils Chrome for iOS update with Maps, Calendar and Translator integration

Google announced Four new Chrome features coming soon to the browser on iPhone and iPad.

1. Viewing an address on a map

After clicking on the address of some institution, it will not necessarily go to the Maps application: you can see its location in a pop-up window in Chrome itself.

2. Quick creation of calendar events

As with Maps, you no longer need to go to a separate app for simple actions. It will be enough to hold down the date in the browser and select "Add to Google Calendar" in the context menu.

3. Improved translation

Chrome has been taught to work better with translation suggestions for sites in languages ​​unknown to the user. There was also a long-awaited opportunity to translate a selected piece of text through the context menu: previously it was possible to translate only one word or the entire page.

4. Search by camera image

Chrome on iOS already suggests using "Lens" for image search, but so far this only works with images from the web. In the upcoming update, they will add the ability to search for information and products using photos from the camera and from the gallery.

Exact release dates for new features have not yet been disclosed.
