A new version of Google Chrome is finally available for iOS and iPadOS. Google started releasing app updates on iOS again in February, with the updates resuming till last month. Chrome, however, missed out on version 88 and version 89 entirely, as the Google-owned browser did not receive updates for iOS for the longest time.

Google has released Chrome 86 for iOS today, and it fixes an annoying issue that caused a web page rendering issue after rotating the device to landscape and back to portrait.

• Chrome OS is the speedy, simple and secure operating system that powers every Chromebook.
• Chrome is Google's browser for Apple devices. Apart from high performance and speed, the software is compatible with numerous Google apps for iOS devices such as Gmail and YouTube.

Since the release of Chrome 85, users have complained that when you rotate a web page from portrait to landscape and back to portrait, the page would show large margins and not render correctly.

This bug is demonstrated in the following image, which shows the original rendering of the apple.com site in portrait mode, and then how it looks after changing its orientation to landscape and back to portrait.

If you look at the image above, you can see that the after-rotation rendering of the page includes a large white margin, causing the page not to be displayed properly.

In a bug issue reported to Google, a Chrome engineer stated that this issue could not be replicated in Chrome 86.

'We're going to disable the FullscreenBrowserScoped feature for M85 and relaunch to M86 to 100% since reproducing in M86+ has not been successful. Unsure if building with the iOS14 SDK fixed it or if multiwindow implementation resolved a lingering bug with this refactor,' a Chrome engineer stated in a Chrome bug report.

In tests conducted by BleepingComputer after upgrading to Chrome 86, the issue is now resolved.

While this is a standout and annoying bug that was resolved, it was not the only change in Chrome 86.

Other features added in Chrome 86 for iOS include:

• You can now make Chrome your default browser.
• You can check if your saved passwords have been compromised and, if so, how to fix them. Go to Chrome settings > passwords > check passwords
• You now have more sharing, opening and other options when you tap and hold on Bookmarks, history, recent tabs, and read later.
• You'll see improvements to the personalized stories on your new tab page.
• If you have 'Make searches and browsing better' turned on, Chrome will offer some additional protection by checking known phishing websites with Google in real time.

You can upgrade to Chrome 86 now from the App Store.

Getting Started

To test beta versions of apps and App Clips using TestFlight, you’ll need to accept an email or public link invitation from the developer and have a device that you can use to test.

Members of the developer’s team can be given access to all builds of the app.

All other invited testers can access builds that the developer makes available to them. A developer can invite you to test with an email or a public link.

Required platforms

• iOS apps: iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch running iOS 8 or later. App Clips require iOS 14 or later. iMessage apps and sticker packs require iOS 10 or later.
• tvOS apps: Apple TV running tvOS 9 or later.
• watchOS apps: Apple Watch running watchOS 2 or later.

TestFlight is not available for Mac apps.

Available Languages

TestFlight for both iOS and tvOS is available in Arabic, Catalan, Chinese (simplified), Chinese (traditional), Croatian, Czech, Danish, Dutch, English (Australia), English (U.K.), English (U.S.), Finnish, French, French (Canada), German, Greek, Hebrew, Hindi, Hungarian, Indonesian, Italian, Japanese, Korean, Malaysian, Norwegian, Polish, Portuguese (Brazil), Portuguese (Portugal), Romanian, Russian, Slovak, Spanish, Spanish (Latin America), Swedish, Thai, Turkish, Ukrainian, and Vietnamese.

Installing and Testing Beta Apps

Each build is available to test for up to 90 days, starting from the day the developer uploads their build. You can see how many days you have left for testing under the app name in TestFlight. TestFlight will notify you each time a new build is available and will include instructions on what you need to test. Alternatively, with TestFlight 3 or later, you can turn on automatic updates to have the latest beta builds install automatically.

When the testing period is over, you'll no longer be able to open the beta build. To install the App Store version of the app, download or purchase the app from the App Store. In-app purchases are free only during beta testing, and any in-app purchases made during testing will not carry over to App Store versions.

When you accept a TestFlight invitation through a public link, your name and email address are not visible to the developer. However, they’ll be able to see your number of sessions and crashes, the day you installed their app, and the latest installed version.

Giving Feedback

While testing a beta version of an app or App Clip, you can send the developer feedback about issues you experience or make suggestions for improvements based on the “What to Test” content. Feedback you submit through TestFlight is also provided to Apple as part of the TestFlight service.

iOS Apps

If your device is running iOS 13 or later, you can send feedback through the TestFlight app or directly from the beta app or beta App Clip by taking a screenshot, and you can report a crash after it occurs. If you were invited to test an app with a public link, you can choose not to provide your email address or other personal information to the developer.

1. Open the TestFlight app on your device.
2. From the Apps list, tap the app.
3. Tap Send Beta Feedback.

Sending Feedback through the Beta App (iOS 13 or later)

When you take a screenshot while testing a beta app or beta App Clip, you can send the screenshot with feedback directly to the developer without leaving the app or App Clip Experience. Developers can opt out of receiving this type of feedback, so this option is only available if the developer has it enabled.

1. Take a screenshot on your device. For details on how to take screenshots, see Take a screenshot on your iPhone, Take a screenshot on your iPad, and Take a screenshot on your iPod touch.
2. A thumbnail of your screenshot appears in the lower-left corner of your device. Tap the thumbnail and, if needed, add drawings and text with Markup. Then tap the Done button.
3. Tap the Share Beta Feedback.
4. Optionally, you can add comments (up to 2,000 characters), and your email address if you were invited with a public link.
5. Tap Submit.

Sending Crash Information (iOS 13 or later)

If you experience a crash while testing a beta app or beta App Clip, you’ll receive an alert asking if you want to send crash details to the developer through TestFlight. Developers can opt out of receiving this type of feedback, so this option is only available if the developer has it enabled.

When the crash alert displays, tap Share, add any additional comments, and tap Submit.

Sending Feedback through the TestFlight App (iOS 12.4 or earlier)

If your device is running iOS 12.4 or earlier, tap Send Beta Feedback to compose an email to the developer. The feedback email contains detailed information about the beta app and about your iOS device. You can also provide additional information, such as necessary screenshots and steps required to reproduce any issues. Your email address will be visible to the developer when you send email feedback through the TestFlight app even if you were invited through a public link.

Contacting the Developer

If you need to contact the developer while you’re testing their beta app for reasons other than feedback, you can view their email address. In TestFlight, go to the app’s page, go to the Information section, and tap App Details to view the developer’s email address.

tvOS Apps

To provide feedback on a tvOS app, open TestFlight, go to app’s page, go to the Information section to view the developer's email address, and send them an email. Provide as much information as you can, including screenshots and steps required to reproduce any issues you encountered. Please note that your email address will be visible to the developer when you send email feedback through TestFlight.

Additionally, you can unsubscribe using the link at the bottom of the invitation email to notify the developer that you’d like to be removed from their list. If you accepted the invitation and no longer wish to test the app, you can delete yourself as a tester in the app’s Information page in TestFlight by tapping Stop Testing.
