New gestures in update of Chrome for Android
– Take a look at these tips, tricks, and solution you can use to make your life much easier with your devices whenever problems arrive and complications which you may find difficult to deal with.
On October 1, 2013, Google Chrome for Android received an update that included support for various gestures or finger movements on the screen. The idea was to give “shortcuts” to the user to handle the browser somewhat faster. To this day, these gestures continue to work in the latest version of the browser, as well as others that have been added in the last six years.
Those gestures include one that lets you quickly switch tabs, preview tabs, manage, update, and zoom with one finger (even on websites that do not allow to enlarge their content).
Double tap on the screen to zoom or enlarge and twice to unzoom. Now, if you keep your finger on the screen after the second tap, swipe up or down to adjust the amount of zoom.
If you come across pages that do not zoom, go to the Google Chrome settings (three-dot button, Settings), tap on Accessibility and leave the “Force zoom” box checked. Now you can forcefully enlarge the content of a website programmed to not allow that.
Despite doing the above, pages with content already adapted to the mobile screen, that is “adaptable” or “responsive” websites, will not zoom. If you want the zoom to work on them, you will have to activate the “Computer version” from the three-point button in Chrome.
