Google Chrome

Browse the web from one place

Google Chrome is a mobile web browser for opening websites, searching the internet, and moving between online services from an Android phone or tablet. It suits people who want a familiar browser for everyday reading, shopping, research, social platforms, and web-based communication. The address bar also works as a search box, and voice search can help when typing is inconvenient.

Useful tools for everyday browsing

Chrome includes practical features for handling a busy web session. You can keep multiple pages open with tabs, organise related pages with tab groups, and translate supported websites when they are written in another language. Google Lens can use an image or camera view to help identify something and find related information. The browser also connects with Google Password Manager for saving and generating account credentials.

• Search: Look up information directly from the address bar, with text or voice input.
• Translation: Read supported pages in a different language.
• Sync: Carry bookmarks, tabs, passwords, and other browsing details across signed-in devices.
• Safety checks: Receive warnings about suspected phishing, malware, and other risky sites.

Best for connected Google users

Chrome is particularly suitable for anyone who uses Google services on both mobile and desktop. Signing in can make saved browsing information available across devices, which is useful when research begins on one screen and continues on another. Its straightforward layout keeps the search field, tabs, and page controls easy to reach without adding unnecessary complexity.
