Google Chrome is one of the most popular browsers for accessing the internet, and it includes a range of experimental features known as ‘flags’ that users can test out.
These features are primarily designed to encourage innovation on the platform and provide users with more customisation options, better network performance and greater security.
To use Chrome flags, users need to enter ‘chrome//flags’ into the address bar, search for the relevant flag, click on it and select ‘Enabled’ from the dropdown menu.
It’s important to note that these features are experimental and can cause instability or unexpected behaviour in the browser, so users should exercise caution and back up any important data before enabling them.
This article provides an overview of Chrome flags and offers a step-by-step guide to using them, alongside tips for safe and effective use, and a list of popular flags worth exploring.
