Starting with Chrome v78, the company added lots of experimental features in the Chrome browser. We have already covered about Password Leak Detection Tool in our previous post. In this post, we will cover another handy feature i.e. Tab Preview.
A few months ago, the company confirmed that they’re going to add Tab Preview feature in future updates by including two flags Tab Hover Cards and Tab Hover Card Images.
Both flags were available in the stable version of the Chrome browser from the last few updates, but the Tab Preview feature was not working properly. Starting with Chrome v78, it starts working.
Those who’re not aware of Tab Preview, if enabled will show a preview image that includes full-page title and URL in the tab hover cards. The same feature is already available in Microsoft Edge for Windows 10.
Chrome Tab Preview feature is still in the experimental phase and is not yet ready for everyday use. However, it will more useable when the company will enable this feature with default settings.
