Chrome has been working on a new feature 'Privacy Review' to help users review various privacy settings, Techtsp has spotted a new development. Available behind a feature flag, this feature will serve as an entry point to new privacy checkups in the Chrome browser. Privacy Review in Chrome This new feature flag has been added to the Developer build and is disabled by default. Once enabled, it shows a new subpage under the ‘Privacy and security’ tab in Chrome. The flag description reads: “Shows a new subpage in Settings that helps the user to review various privacy settings.” How Privacy Review Chrome flag works Enabling the new #privacy-review feature flag in Chrome adds a new subpage under privacy settings called ‘Privacy and security review.’ This will help users review the most important privacy and security controls in one place. However, clicking on the new ‘privacy review’ tab did not open any new settings. It looks like the feature is not fully ready and is currently und

Google Chrome web apps can soon express their ability to read and edit files from Windows 10’s native file system. Therefore, in addition to native apps, users can choose to open and edit certain file types with progressive web apps (PWAs) installed on Windows 10 computers. This has been made possible with the help of an upcoming feature called File Handling, Techtsp has learned. Now, similar to native apps, Google specifically wants web apps to declare their ability to handle files with given MIME file types and extensions. This way, Google says it wants to increase transparency between web apps and native apps by providing users with a more consistent user experience across both. “The goal for this project is to implement an API that will allow Chrome progressive web apps (PWAs) to 'handle' (read) files in the host OS's file system, in much the same way as a native app would,” said Google engineer Darwin Huang in a design document seen by Techtsp. “This dovetails with the

Google Chrome is extending Picture-in-Picture (PiP) capabilities to video conferencing actions with the help of something called Media Session API , Techtsp.com has spotted a new development. This feature has not shipped to any Chrome channel and is only being prototyped at the moment. This feature will allow users to easily mute their microphone, enable/disable the camera, or end their conference calls using a PiP window.  Techtsp.com has also obtained an early UX mockup of the feature. "We want to make picture-in-picture (PIP) more useful on video conferencing platforms by enabling the user to mute/unmute their microphone, enable/disable their camera, or hang up the call from the PIP window. To accomplish this, we’ll add new actions for these to the MediaSession API and let websites declare handlers for those actions," said Google engineer Tommy Steimel in a design document seen by Techtsp.com. This functionality is mostly applicable with Desktop platforms, including Linux,

Microsoft Edge will soon introduce a new feature called  Window Controls Overlay to make Progressive Web Apps (PWAs) visually indistinguishable from their native counterparts, enabling developers to customize the title bar area of their PWAs. [Listen to this article on Spotify] "This feature enables developers to build web apps which make better use of screen space and allows them to design their app to feel more like a native app. As devices become smaller for portability, the title bar consumes a larger fraction of the screen, leaving less room for the user to interact with the app," Microsoft Edge's Amanda Baker said in a technical document seen by Techtsp. Edge is trying to solve one of the biggest problems with Progressive Web Apps: the lack of customization of the title bar area. Unlike native apps, which come with a customizable title bar, PWAs have a title bar section reserved by the system. As a result, PWAs end up looking like they are running on in a separate

Google Chrome is working towards adding an enterprise policy for configuring the browser theme color, Techtsp.com has spotted a new development. This new feature will practically prevent Chrome users from changing the theme color of the browser. However, this has been designed for enterprise users (systems enrolled as a part of an organization) and not personal users. The feature is currently under development. [Listen to this article] Google's enterprise policy for configuring Chrome's theme color Here is how the feature will work. The system admins can now create a policy that will set a single theme color across all Chrome systems. Meaning, individual employees in the firm will not be able to change the browser theme color. While the preliminary code review and UI check are complete, we are a few steps away from seeing this feature in action. Developers have used an intuitive User Interface for this feature. Techtsp.com has also obtained some screenshots showing how the cust
