Google updated its Chrome app for iPhone and iPad today with a few minor features to make the browsing experience more comfortable. First up is right-to-left Omnibox support for Arabic and Hebrew after adding initial autocomplete support for right-to-left languages in the previous update. The company said the update also brings the ability to “Easily refine your search queries and view more results” thanks to a slightly revamped search results page.
In addition, Google will now let you “see your search term in the omnibox, instead of the long search query URL.” That means when you enter a search query and land on a Google search results page, you’ll no longer see a long, confusing URL in the omnibox but rather just your search term much like in Apple’s Safari iOS app.
What’s New in Version 35.0.1916.38
• Added right-to-left support to the omnibox for Arabic and Hebrew • See your search term in the omnibox, instead of the long search query URL • Easily refine your search queries and view more results on the search results page • Stability improvements and bug fixes
