10 Google Chrome Flags to Improve Your Browsing Experience in 2022
By Timothy Tibbettson 11/12/2022 |
Google Chrome has a feature known as Flags that gives you access to experimental features that may or may not appear in future builds. Here are ten flags to help improve your browsing experience in Windows, Linux, macOS, ChromeOS, and Android.
If you don't already know, here's how to Enable Google Chrome Flags. You can also browse all available flags (Experiments) by typing in chrome://flags/ in a new tab.
Flags can come and go, so if you try one that does not work, please leave a comment so we can replace it with something better.
