Android 12 allows multiple windows to launch in Google Chrome

Do you often open a browser on your computer in multiple independent windows? And do you miss these options on your mobile phone? See you soon for the popular Google Chrome. In combination with the upcoming Android 12 system, this browser will learn to display on a split screen multiple windows. It will not only be a “hybrid” visual division as before, but self-running instances of the application. Apparently there can be up to five of them and they will be able to hold any number of cards.

They refer to the change in the Chromium core for the novelty. When split-screen is running on your mobile, Chrome will offer a menu launch a new window. From the moment when more windows are active, an item also appears in the menu manage windows (manage windows), which not only allows for quick switching, but also an overview of how many tabs are open in each instance of the browser.

The good news is that instances that appear to be able to store their own independent content for future execution, thanks to their own storage of history and files. This is a novelty differs from the current situation, when Chrome can be thrown into two windows, but when you close one, the tabs merge automatically. At this time, the new feature is available for beta testers on Chrome and Android 12.

For what purposes would you use this novelty?
