#Chrome browser update 2026

Google announced that its Chrome browser will start receiving major updates every two weeks beginning September 2026, speeding up the release schedule for new features and improvements. The change will start with Chrome version 153, which will roll out to beta and stable channels on September 8, 2026. Each Chrome release usually includes updates related to browser stability, speed, and ease of use. Meanwhile, the Extended Stable version of Chrome, often used by businesses and system administrators, will stay on its current eight-week release cycle to allow more time for testing and managing updates. A copy of the email sent to us to day follows: Dear Ad Manager Partner, On August 10, 2026, Google will update the Gambling and games policy for Authorized Buyers. Besides, by being a Chrome cousin, it would be easier for Flock to partner with Google for in-browser search monetization. I personally liked the extensions on Chrome because it doesn't require a restart of the browser.
