Controls and settings

Finding a particular browser setting might, at times, be difficult. Managing and tuning it to one’s taste is even more difficult. Google has addressed these issues by making design changes in the Chrome browser. The redesigned browser has controls that are easier to find and understand, with simplified language and visuals. Here are some of the settings that will become easier to find and manage in Chrome browser:

Cookies: You can now choose how cookies are used by websites you visit. There is an option to block third-party cookies in regular and incognito mode, and to block all cookies on all websites or on select websites.

In site settings: The redesigned Chrome browser makes it easier to find crucial in site settings like location access, camera or microphone, and notifications. Moreover, the browser now highlights the most recent permissions activity.

You and Google: This replaces “People”, which was there on the top of Chrome settings. This setting is where you find sync controls. These controls help you know what data is shared with Google to store in your Google Account and made available across devices.
