Besides the new features, the desktop gets 32 bug fixes and improvements.

The other notable aspect of the desktop version of the browser is the sharing hub. To explain this, the feature lets users copy links, share to third-party websites and get a QR code. The option to Send to devices is available only to signed-in users. Chrome’s sharing hub can be accessed via either an omnibox icon or the menu with three dots. Chrome for Windows, Linux and Mac will support the desktop sharing hub.

On iOS, there is a feature to easily manage tabs. It lets users select multiple tabs and add them to the bookmarked, reading list, closed or shared. The iOS version also supports downloading and opening .mobileconfig files. Such files can be used to configure iOS devices to function with certain enterprise systems.
