Android tablets and foldables are getting a Chrome bookmark bar

"Google is rolling out a new feature for Chrome that will add a bookmark bar to the browser on Android foldables and tablets. Spotted by 9to5Google, this move will make the browsing experience on larger mobile devices more akin to that of laptops and desktops running Chrome. For those people who do like to do more robust computing on their mobile gadgets, this will be a hugely welcome addition."

"The mobile version of the bookmarks bar will appear below the Omnibox, displaying Favicons and site names. A chevron will appear to scroll deeper into the list of bookmarks, and a long press on a bookmark will display the entire URL."

"If you're excited to take advantage of this new tool, you'll have to manually enable it. By default, devices will be set to "Hidden on narrow screens." Go to Settings, then Appearance and finally select "Show bookmarks bar.""

Google is introducing a bookmark bar feature to Chrome on Android foldables and tablets, bringing the desktop browsing experience to larger mobile devices. The feature appears in Chrome version 146 and displays below the Omnibox with favicons and site names. Users can scroll through bookmarks using a chevron icon, and long-pressing reveals full URLs. By default, the bookmark bar is hidden on narrow screens, requiring manual activation through Settings > Appearance > Show bookmarks bar. This enhancement benefits users who perform extensive computing tasks on mobile devices.
