Google today makes Chrome 75 available for Android, Chrome OS, Linux, Mac and Windows. The main focus of this version is to add internal APIs and update existing functions. Developers did discover one hidden novelty: read mode.
The new reading mode is hidden in the flags submenu of Chrome. This function deletes all the elements that can be deduced from a web page so that you can read a long article carefully. You can activate the function anywhere, but you have to do this manually every time. You cannot permanently enable the new reading mode on every page.
Surf to chrome://flags/#enable-reader mode to enable the function. Once that’s done, you have to restart Chrome. After that you can use the function anywhere you want. All you have to do is click on the option icon in the upper right corner and select Distill page.
As soon as you do that, Chrome loads a new page that is pure distractions so that you only see the text and images. Once you’ve moved to another page, you’ll automatically return to the classic view.
In addition, Google has also implemented some security updates and new optimizations for developers. For them, the search giant has compiled an overview in a video:
