- Switching between normal and Incognito mode in Chrome for Android could soon get easier.
- The tab switcher context menu adds a new option to switch in and out of Incognito.
There are a couple of ways to switch between normal browsing and Incognito mode in Chrome for Android. These existing methods are fairly quick and easy to do already, but there is still room for improvement. Google is working on a way to make switching back and forth even more efficient in the mobile browser.
First spotted by Leopeva64 on X (formerly Twitter), Chrome Canary for Android adds a way to quickly swap between your already open normal and Incognito tabs. By long pressing on the tab switcher context menu, you’ll see a new “Switch to Incognito” option. Conversely, if you’re in Incognito mode, this option changes to “Switch out of Incognito.”
