Starting with version 69, Google Chrome introduces a new interface for Windows 10, macOS, Linux, and mobile devices that features tabs with rounded corners, minimalistic elements, new colors, and a lot more.
In addition, Chrome 69 also includes a redesigned “new tab” page that allows you to set a background image using Google’s images or a picture from your personal collection to make the experience a little less boring.
