Ratings and reviews

If you start typing into a field and then switch windows because you can't remember everything you have to type, the Chrome window refreshes when you come back and you lose everything you started typing. Happens every time with the Google home page when entering something in the search bar. This never used to happen. You could switch windows as many times as needed and never lose what you started typing.

Chrome became the premier web browser when it launched, because it was small, sleek, fast, and not bloated. Not the case anymore. It's a serious resource hog, and one of the fastest ways to drain a battery aside from social media apps. It frequently screws everything up, forcing you to force close it and reopen. A lot of the text suggestion pop-ups tend to be actively in the way of text boxes, so that sucks. It's functional, and probably still better than Edge, and faster than Firefox.

A decent browser for those who want/need to use it, but there's better alternatives. Main con I have with Chrome is that it doesn't seem to offer enough ad filtering options, which can be a problem in certain situations. Has great security, privacy & certain other features, but not everything is good... or bad either. It's definitely not my preferred web browser, but overall, it's good... 👍🏻
