The very popular Google Chrome will soon benefit from a very practical little feature!
On the program, new shortcuts that should save you time during your research.
Google Chrome: a search bar that gets smarter
Omnibox is the name that Google gave to the address bar of its Chrome browser. When you carry out a search, it is in particular that which allows you to suggest proposals related to what you are writing. Until then, nothing rocket science. However, it should soon welcome a new feature that will allow users to search directly in their history and their favorites.
The information comes to us from the site 9to5Google : by indicating @history or @favorites in the search bar of your Chrome browser (desktop version only), you will now be able to filter your search. More specifically, when you validate with the enter key on your keyboard, Google will then send you, depending on your request, to the “History” or “Favorites” page. Note that the search must be preceded by the @ symbol and followed by a space and that it will also apply to tabs.
In use, here’s a shortcut that should prove practical for those in a hurry among us. As this feature is still in development, please note that it has not yet started a general rollout. However, it is still possible to activate it using the following flag: chrome://flags/#omnibox-site-search-starter-pack.

- Very good performance
- Simple and pleasant to use
- A secure browser
Google Chrome no longer has to prove its qualities as a stable, fluid, fast, secure, ergonomic and multifunctional browser. Its interface and its mode of use are suitable for all audiences, inexperienced as informed. Criteria that still allow it today to dominate the market on a global scale, and to pursue development that inspires new web standards. But Chrome is not immune to a much less formidable aspect: the collection and commercialization of personal data by the browser which makes it a serious threat to the privacy of Internet users, all the more so when used in conjunction with other other Google services. If respect for confidentiality must, for you, take precedence over the rest, we advise you to turn to Brave or Firefox, more reliable alternatives and satisfactory performance.
