Google is making it easier to swap between user profiles in the new Chrome update that is running today.
Chrome profiles are nothing new – you can currently swap between Google accounts; Keep personal extensions, applications, history, themes, and bookmarks for individual users on shared computers; And also sync those settings between devices.
Google is releasing a “revised” profile experience. Now, if you have more than one profile set up, a “profile picker” will appear every time Chrome is prompted to restart, select a user, or browse as a guest. Chrome will prompt you to switch profiles or create a new one “when you might benefit,” Google says. And finally, when you create a new profile, you will be able to choose its color with one click.
The new update also includes an extension of Chrome’s reading list feature, which was previously limited to the iOS app. Now, you can save articles to read later in Android and desktop versions of Chrome.
