Smartphones become more powerful and more important than some of the hard boundaries of the past do not really apply today. Multi-Tasking has become more important than phones earn more RAM and more than one application open at the same time is a staple function on tablets and the new breed of foldable devices. Despite these changes, mobile applications are always limited to the old “one instance” or “a window” by conference of the application from the first years of smartphones. Google could change this with Chrome running on Android 12, allowing users to have up to five instances of the web browser.
Limit the number of instances or windows of an application operates at one time given on the meaning of a few years when the phones were simpler and smaller. These days, many users, even those with traditional “bar in Candy”, juggle several applications and accounts at a time, pushing manufacturers to support the characteristics of “dual application”, although especially for the Social Media and Messaging Applications. As mobile devices become more sophisticated and more complicated navigation habits, the desire to have something similar for web browsers has also started gaining traction.
It seems that Google would finally let it happen, at least with Chrome, later this year. XDA Changes Advanté The source code of the Chrome and the Android which introduced a flag of the development version of the mobile browser that turns to this user-user functionality. Once activated, users will be able to “move” a tab to another window, creating a separate chrome instance.
This “multi-instance” feature would allow five chrome windows to work simultaneously, whether side by side in split screen mode or even right in the background. Each window may have as many tabs as necessary and the preview of Recent Android applications will display each window as a separate entry. In other words, it puts almost Chrome for Android at the same level as its desktop version in terms of multitasking.
This next Chrome on Android 12 works perfectly in the growing trends in the smartphone market. Many OEMs are now completing their RAM with a virtual memory, for example. It also looks like Google’s foldable phone preparation from the opening of a new Chrome window feels almost natural with a larger screen.
