Here’s how to manually update Chrome on all your devices. We always recommend having the latest version of Chrome for the fastest Chrome experience on your device, and manually updating Chrome is the best way to do it. Of course, you don’t have to wait for an automatic update to be pushed out to your device. Updates are synchronized across most major platforms. That includes Chrome for Windows, MacOS, Linux, Android, and iOS, with new versions of Chrome publishing every month or so. No matter which OS you’re using Chrome with, it frequently gets updated and patched. Chrome is available on all major operating systems and hardware platforms, and it’s the top choice on Windows and android device.

What started as a pet project for Google more than a decade ago has become the top choice for most people when it comes to browsing the web, no matter what device they use. Go check Chrome for updates now.When it comes to browsers, Google Chrome is easily the most popular choice around the globe. Note: if you worry your tabs will be lost on restart, be sure to change the setting so Chrome always restores them when it starts ( More > Settings > On Startup: Continue where you left off). That means Microsoft Edge, Brave, Amazon Silk, Samsung Internet, Vivaldi and many more. And remember, all Chromium-based browsers work the same way. While this can be a hassle, forgetting/choosing not to restart presents an open goal for hackers and undoes the hard work of Google in its attempts to keep users safe. Yes, some updates on platforms like macOS, Linux and Windows can be applied without restarting your computer but Chrome requires the browser to be restarted every time. This is because Chrome will not be protected until you complete this step. The last step is the most crucial and it is one overlooked by many: after every update always restart your browser. That said, for example, a morning and night check can keep you ahead of the pack and you may even receive updates before Google has officially announced them. It is also why following either the Chrome blog or my posts (click the blue 'Follow' at the top of my author page) makes sense because it will eliminate random checks. How often you do this is entirely up to you.

Chrome will be forced to manually check for an update.
