Google Chrome Adds Haptic Feedback Feature

News summary

Google has rolled out an update for the Chrome app on Android, version 128, which introduces haptic feedback that causes devices to vibrate when users pull down to refresh a webpage. This feature enhances the user experience by providing tactile confirmation of the refresh action, although it does not activate when using the refresh button in the overflow menu. Currently, this vibration feature is available on Google Pixel and Samsung Galaxy devices, and the update is being gradually deployed through the Play Store. Additional features include spinning icons and loading bars, as well as the ability to color-code tab groups for easier management. This update is part of a series of changes aimed at improving Chrome, amidst recent legal challenges related to user privacy. The Chrome 128 update is not yet widely available to all Android users.
