Google has announced that Chrome users on iOS can now choose to move the address bar from the top to the bottom of the screen. This option is meant to make it easier for users to access the address bar with one hand, especially on larger devices. The feature was previously available only to users who enabled a flag, but now it is rolling out to everyone.
“Starting today, you can move the Chrome address bar to the bottom of your iPhone screen. We know people prefer different address bar positions depending on the size of their hands and devices, and we took those preferences into account when building this highly requested feature,” Google said in a blog post.

The option to move the address bar to the bottom is similar to what Apple introduced in Safari 15 for iOS. However, Apple faced some backlash from users who complained that the new design made some features harder to access, such as Reader Mode and refresh button. Apple later reverted the changes and gave users the choice to keep the address bar at the top or move it to the bottom.
The new option will appeal to users who want more convenience and flexibility when browsing the web on their iPhones. The feature is expected to be available for all iOS users in the coming weeks.
