The team of developers of Google Chrome must be acknowledged for being constantly committed to improving this popular browser with the aim of guaranteeing users an experience that is even richer.
And so from time to time, we happen to discover tests that the team of the Mountain View giant carries out to try to understand how users could accommodate certain more or less relevant changes.
One of these tests concerns the New Page tab on Google Chrome, which is a feature that is often “targeted” by developers and that in the future on Android devices could host a new carousel menu.
A new feature of Google Chrome on Android is being tested
For a long time, the New Page tab of the browser of the Mountain View giant on Android has featured the Google logo, the Omnibox for searching and entering addresses and shortcuts for recently visited websites.

The desired one while with the current structure they have the possibility to directly select those that are shown. Below is a screenshot of the current version and one of the one being tested, in which you can see the structure a little more contained overall:
At present, there are no guarantees that this new interface will actually be made available to all users, as it often happens that the Google team tests changes for some time and then decides to set them aside. However, this new interface has been implemented for some users with Google Chrome version 102 in the past few days.
