Chrome is using biometrics to make your tabs more secure.<\/p>\n Google has been hard at work trying to make its Chrome browser safer and more secure. Chrome 88 was recently released on all platforms, including the best Android phones<\/a>, and came with a number of privacy enhancements that make it easier for users to manage their passwords and perform security checks<\/a>. And while Google has been notably absent from any stable updates of its iOS apps, the platform is still seeing some love on the beta front with a new update bringing some useful biometric features.<\/p>\n The latest update to the Chrome 89 beta on iOS gives users the ability to use their iPhone biometrics to lock their incognito tabs. This way, if you navigate away from the tab and come back to it, it will be blurred out until you confirm your identity using Face ID or Touch ID.<\/p>\n Google Chrome on iOS is getting Face ID support that will protect and secure incognito tabs ?? pic.twitter.com\/gnQmOzjdV6<\/a><\/p>\n \u2014 Tom Warren (@tomwarren) February 11, 2021<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n It’s a clever way to make sure your incognito tabs stay private.
