Google is changing Chrome's update schedule after more than a decade. The main internet browser today, the tool received new updates every six weeks. Now the deadline will be shorter: a new version of the browser will arrive for home users every month. This will allow security and stability implementations to reach the tool’s consumers more quickly, but not everyone will need to adopt the new model.
For example, IT administrators can opt into the extended update program, which will see a new version of the browser arrive every two months instead of every 30 days. It may seem counterintuitive that system developers would want to delay updates, but since each new patch can change numerous browser mechanics and engines, this option allows them to remain on a compatible version of the application for the systems they manage, while also exploring the new in-house version of the app and promoting future adaptations.
Therefore, the new faster update cycle should begin sometime between July and September, with version 94 of the product. This new policy of updating Chrome at shorter intervals comes shortly after a series of new developments from Google for various apps and systems. The Mountain View company promises to detail the new schedule with more technical information so that no developer is worried about the news.
It is worth remembering that, although this is one of the most important pieces of news involving the browser, other interesting updates are coming: on Android tablets, the browser will now open by default the desktop version of the websites. And with Commander it will be possible get more practicality when searching for something on Google or even a tool from Chrome itself.
