Chrome on iOS now lets you move the address bar to the bottom

Google’s Chrome browser on iOS is officially getting the option to move the address bar from the top of the screen to the bottom

the search giant has announced. Early signs of the feature were spotted in a beta version of the browser this year, but as of this week, it’s getting a wide release. Without having to update my browser, I already have access to the feature on my phone.

It’s an optional change, and judging by my own Chrome app, the default is still the top-oriented address bar.

But if you want to move it down to the bottom, you can do so using the “address bar” option in the Settings menu
