Assalamu Alaikum, Dear Mi Fans
Greetings from Mi Community Bangladesh Tech Team! We hope you and your family are safe and well.

Tech giant Google is gradually rolling out a new feature to Google Chrome 87 that allows the user to type commands in the address bar that perform specific browser actions. The new version of Chrome brings various features and improvements such as tab throttling, occlusion tracking, and more.

According to Mashable, this new feature is called Chrome Actions and allows the user to type in a command, causing an action to be displayed in the address bar search results. When the user selects that action, it will be executed in the browser.

The new option can help user directly search in Google or the engine of choice and even present calculations and unit conversions even before pressing ''Enter''. Its next trick might appeal to a certain class of users who are more used to entering commands in a terminal or envision themselves giving orders to the browser through typed commands.

Chrome Actions might sound not that useful feature at first but with regular usage, you will definitely come to appreciate it. For someone who’s already used to use commands on the terminal, Chrome Actions might look very appealing. Furthermore, the feature might help a certain class of users to dig into actions swiftly than compared to searching it among a plethora of options. You can even perform calculations and unit conversions right in the address bar. Chrome Actions will show you the result the way the address bar shows you keywords while searching. You can then click on the result to know more about it.

Some of these commands include delete history, update browser, launch incognito mode, update credit card info, edit passwords, translate this, and much more.
