You can find the world’s information, stay connected to friends and family, do your shopping, or be entertained all by simply tapping on a link on your phone. But challenges like high data cost and slow, 2G-like connections often prevent our users from getting the most out of the web. <br /> <br /> We want to make Chrome a better place for all our users to enjoy the mobile web. Chrome’s new features on Data Saver, downloads, and content discovery were designed to help you do more on the web, no matter what phone or network you may have.<br /> <br /> <b>Save more data, even on videos</b><br /> We launched Data Saver to help you enjoy more content on the web while using less data. With Data Saver enabled, Chrome compresses the images and text you load, saving up to 60% of your data without changing the content you enjoy. <br /> <br /> Now, we have brought the same technology to videos, which allows you to save up to 67% of your data when viewing MP4 format videos through Chrome. In India alone, this new technology is already saving 138 TB of data on video in a single week — roughly 14 years of HD video! <br /> <br /> Data Saver is also becoming smarter. When you are on a slow connection, Data Saver will automatically optimize HTTP websites to their essentials. These optimized pages save up to 90% of your data, loading 2 times faster!<br /> <div style="text-align: center;"><span id="docs-internal-guid-127952ae-5f02-bd08-3e82-f604a74970b7"><span style="background-color: white; font-family: "arial"; font-size: 14.6667px; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><img height="265" src="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/pcKD0NP1NtdnuR9FGMY01jQDqxvOyhMB4Q2BvbUU8I27gBuDjUmbnryvDsL57vIC3WCtZJO4Yt2kF4Cz2c1BVhjjYK1_Q4O3XJa7lVMWk8W5SYEi4Nmx7nUb4Kx5fGpaLLEJjOKT" style="border: none; transform: rotate(0rad);" width="320" /></span></span></div>Less time waiting for pages to load, more data savings, and video support.

In fact, over the last year Chrome has seen double-digit improvements in speed and battery life. These improvements help you get more done, faster, and we thought you’d like an update.<br /> <br /> Speed has always been a priority for Chrome. People spend so much time in the browser that even tiny page delays can add up to minutes of lost time every day. When measured with tools like <a href="http://browserbench.org/Speedometer/">Speedometer</a>, improvements over the last year have made Chrome more than 15 percent faster on both desktop and Android. That’s good news if you’re working against a deadline or trying to place a last-minute order.<br /> <br /> We also know that you want to get as much browsing time out of your laptop’s battery as possible. So Chrome now uses less battery for sites that people visit the most. For example, Chrome for Windows lets you watch more video on sites like Vimeo, Facebook and YouTube than it did a year ago.<br /> <br /> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> </div> <div style="text-align: center;"> <div style="text-align: left;"> <div style="text-align: center;"> <div style="text-align: left;"> <div style="text-align: center;"> <iframe allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/HKRsFD_Spf8" width="560"></iframe></div> <div style="text-align: center;"> <span style="color: #999999;">Chrome 53 gives 2h 12m more Vimeo HD on a single charge</span></div> <br /></div> <div style="text-align: left;"> Of course, people use their browsers for more than just video. That’s why we’ve been improving battery life across the board, tracking progress using <a href="https://software.intel.com/en-us/articles/intel-power-gadget-20">power measurement tools</a>. As one example, Chrome for Mac now uses 33 percent less power for everything from videos and images to simple page scrolling. Whether you’re planning a vacation or getting work done, you now get more browsing time from a single battery charge.</div> <div style="text-align: left;"> <br /></div> <div style="text-align: left;"> We don’t just want Chrome to run faster, we want to help you get things done faster. That’s why we’ve also brought fast, seamless payments to Chrome on Android, including support for Android Pay, by adding support for the PaymentRequest web standard. So now when shopping online, you can check out with as little as a single tap.</div> <br /> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjawms0h_0B3wI7n32Miijnn5CswZ9jvfTwdyV-RH8EtaaqUQWdpw7XxfSWJpg-UGHG7yTc_SEy4U5YqNqr2Z1d77kiNoOUAbOWv7FEFxV6ftYUIgGhpv-A_Kzn3tPphAihkDGeXq6mQmQ_/s1600/groupon-final-https.gif" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjawms0h_0B3wI7n32Miijnn5CswZ9jvfTwdyV-RH8EtaaqUQWdpw7XxfSWJpg-UGHG7yTc_SEy4U5YqNqr2Z1d77kiNoOUAbOWv7FEFxV6ftYUIgGhpv-A_Kzn3tPphAihkDGeXq6mQmQ_/s400/groupon-final-https.gif" width="225" /></a></div> <div style="text-align: center;"> <span style="color: #999999;">New Payments at Groupon</span></div> <div style="text-align: center;"> <br /> <div style="text-align: left;"> Faster browsing, faster checkouts, and longer battery life — we think you’ll enjoy the latest release of Chrome.</div> <div style="text-align: left;"> <br /></div> <div style="text-align: left;"> Posted by Chris Cameron, Whittler of Watts.</div> </div> </div> </div> </div> <span itemprop='author' itemscope='itemscope' itemtype='http://schema.org/Person'> <meta content='https://plus.google.com/116899029375914044550' itemprop='url'/> </span> </script> <noscript> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> </div> <div style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"> </div> <br /> <br /> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> </div> <div style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"> </div> Last week, we released a new version of Chrome that includes new payment features and performance improvements.

The artists’ unique approaches to this new medium become apparent when seeing them work inside their Tilt Brush creations. Watch this behind-the-scenes video to hear what the artists had to say about their experience:<br /> <div style="text-align: center;"> <iframe allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/a2wsolTDNdM" width="560"></iframe> </div> Virtual Art Sessions makes use of Google Chrome’s <a href="https://developers.google.com/v8/">V8 Javascript engine</a> for high-performance processing power to render large volumes of data in real time. This includes point cloud data of the artist’s physical form, 3D geometry data of the artwork, and position data of the VR controllers. It also relies on Chrome’s support of <a href="http://www.webmproject.org/">WebM video</a> and <a href="https://www.chromeexperiments.com/webgl">WebGL</a> to produce the 360° representations of the artists and artwork – the artist portrayals alone require the browser to draw over 200,000 points at 30 times a second. For a deeper look, read the <a href="https://developers.google.com/web/showcase/case-study/art-sessions">technical case study</a> or browse the project code that is available open source from the site’s <a href="https://virtualart.chromeexperiments.com/#/tech">tech page</a>.<br /> <br /> We hope this experiment provides a window into the world of painting in virtual reality using Tilt Brush.

Watch this behind-the-scenes video to hear what the artists had to say about their experience:<br /> <div style="text-align: center;"> <iframe allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/a2wsolTDNdM" width="560"></iframe> </div> Virtual Art Sessions makes use of Google Chrome’s <a href="https://developers.google.com/v8/">V8 Javascript engine</a> for high-performance processing power to render large volumes of data in real time. This includes point cloud data of the artist’s physical form, 3D geometry data of the artwork, and position data of the VR controllers. It also relies on Chrome’s support of <a href="http://www.webmproject.org/">WebM video</a> and <a href="https://www.chromeexperiments.com/webgl">WebGL</a> to produce the 360° representations of the artists and artwork – the artist portrayals alone require the browser to draw over 200,000 points at 30 times a second. For a deeper look, read the <a href="https://developers.google.com/web/showcase/case-study/art-sessions">technical case study</a> or browse the project code that is available open source from the site’s <a href="https://virtualart.chromeexperiments.com/#/tech">tech page</a>.<br /> <br /> We hope this experiment provides a window into the world of painting in virtual reality using Tilt Brush. We are excited by this new medium and hope the experience leaves you feeling the same.

This saves up to 100 Terabytes of data a day — enough data to store the complete works of Shakespeare, 10 million times!<br /> The latest version of Chrome brings some fresh updates for the new year to get you moving faster and stay secure.<br /> <br /> <h3> Speed and stability on iOS</h3> The <a href="https://goo.gl/a0K8IR">latest Chrome for iOS</a> is significantly faster and more stable, so you can pick up where you left off browsing (on any device) without worrying about Chrome crashing on misbehaving webpages. In fact, tests show that the latest version reduces Chrome’s crash rate by 70 percent and speeds up JavaScript execution significantly.<br /> <br /> These improvements will gradually be rolled out starting today—just <a href="https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/chrome-web-browser-by-google/id535886823?mt=8">update Chrome</a> to get rolling. (If you want a peek under the hood, check out this update in the <a href="http://blog.chromium.org/2016/01/a-faster-more-stable-chrome-on-ios.html">Chromium blog</a>.)<br /> <br /> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgCyogRjqrYgfZsVuw3jJuagHYue1lNVoynK6Uugjx_KLRt1bR-3v0VjvQlGGa2ujXzU4JqKiNlG73eABb7HHQmeU-ieUim00Ow1DzSsPEN4NjMa_hvwWAxZ-pKHZLvrBnZZbUX0y1qBkm0/s1600/Screenshot+2016-01-27+at+7.51.42+AM.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="355" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgCyogRjqrYgfZsVuw3jJuagHYue1lNVoynK6Uugjx_KLRt1bR-3v0VjvQlGGa2ujXzU4JqKiNlG73eABb7HHQmeU-ieUim00Ow1DzSsPEN4NjMa_hvwWAxZ-pKHZLvrBnZZbUX0y1qBkm0/s640/Screenshot+2016-01-27+at+7.51.42+AM.png" width="640" /></a></div> <h3> Keep an eye on your data usage </h3> <span id="docs-internal-guid-134da7d3-81c3-1be6-e2e8-0795b03e73ff"> <div class="separator" style="clear: both;"> If you’re using your computer at a library or coffee shop with spotty public WiFi, it’s helpful to be able to manage your data usage—which is why we created Chrome’s new <a href="https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/data-saver/pfmgfdlgomnbgkofeojodiodmgpgmkac">Data Saver extension</a>.

To keep all of our users safe and to help them save on data usage, we now show 5 million <a href="https://support.google.com/chrome/answer/99020?hl=en">Safe Browsing</a> warning messages every day and have over 100 million people using <a href="https://support.google.com/chrome/answer/2392284?hl=en">Data Saver mode</a> in Chrome on Android. This saves up to 100 Terabytes of data a day — enough data to store the complete works of Shakespeare, 10 million times!<br /> The latest version of Chrome brings some fresh updates for the new year to get you moving faster and stay secure.<br /> <br /> <h3> Speed and stability on iOS</h3> The <a href="https://goo.gl/a0K8IR">latest Chrome for iOS</a> is significantly faster and more stable, so you can pick up where you left off browsing (on any device) without worrying about Chrome crashing on misbehaving webpages. In fact, tests show that the latest version reduces Chrome’s crash rate by 70 percent and speeds up JavaScript execution significantly.<br /> <br /> These improvements will gradually be rolled out starting today—just <a href="https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/chrome-web-browser-by-google/id535886823?mt=8">update Chrome</a> to get rolling. (If you want a peek under the hood, check out this update in the <a href="http://blog.chromium.org/2016/01/a-faster-more-stable-chrome-on-ios.html">Chromium blog</a>.)<br /> <br /> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgCyogRjqrYgfZsVuw3jJuagHYue1lNVoynK6Uugjx_KLRt1bR-3v0VjvQlGGa2ujXzU4JqKiNlG73eABb7HHQmeU-ieUim00Ow1DzSsPEN4NjMa_hvwWAxZ-pKHZLvrBnZZbUX0y1qBkm0/s1600/Screenshot+2016-01-27+at+7.51.42+AM.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="355" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgCyogRjqrYgfZsVuw3jJuagHYue1lNVoynK6Uugjx_KLRt1bR-3v0VjvQlGGa2ujXzU4JqKiNlG73eABb7HHQmeU-ieUim00Ow1DzSsPEN4NjMa_hvwWAxZ-pKHZLvrBnZZbUX0y1qBkm0/s640/Screenshot+2016-01-27+at+7.51.42+AM.png" width="640" /></a></div> <h3> Keep an eye on your data usage </h3> <span id="docs-internal-guid-134da7d3-81c3-1be6-e2e8-0795b03e73ff"> <div class="separator" style="clear: both;"> If you’re using your computer at a library or coffee shop with spotty public WiFi, it’s helpful to be able to manage your data usage—which is why we created Chrome’s new <a href="https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/data-saver/pfmgfdlgomnbgkofeojodiodmgpgmkac">Data Saver extension</a>.

At $35, Chromecast Audio is an affordable way to connect your speakers via WiFi so you can stream tons of popular apps including Spotify, Pandora, and Google Play Music from anywhere in your home. Today we’re starting to add two new features to the latest software update to elevate your listening experience.<br /> <br /> <h3> Introducing Hi-Res audio support</h3> Close your eyes and imagine the musician is playing in the room. Today we’re rolling out high-resolution audio support, which gives you even higher quality music playback using Chromecast Audio. With support of up to 96KHz/24bit lossless audio playback, you can enjoy higher-than-CD-quality audio on your existing high fidelity audio equipment.<br /> <br /> <h3> Blast the same song in every room</h3> Now you can easily fill every room in your home—bedroom, kitchen, living room, or wherever you have a Chromecast Audio connected—with synchronous music. Multi-room lets you group Chromecast Audio devices together so you can listen to the same song on multiple speakers.<br /> <br /> Setup is simple. Connect and setup a Chromecast Audio device for each of your speakers, then use the latest <a href="http://chromecast.com/setup">Chromecast app</a> to create a group. You can cast to the group the exact same way you would cast to a single Chromecast device. Since anyone with a phone can easily cast without pairing, you can sync your home speakers together and invite your friends to be the DJ.<br /> <br /> So grab your hairbrush microphone, dust off your tennis racket guitar, and jam out to your favorite tunes at amazing quality and in every room of your house.<br /> <br /> Posted by Tomer Shekel, Product Manager and Patron of Loud Music <span itemprop='author' itemscope='itemscope' itemtype='http://schema.org/Person'> <meta content='https://plus.google.com/116899029375914044550' itemprop='url'/> </span> </script> <noscript> A couple of months ago we launched <a href="//www.google.com/chromecast/speakers/">Chromecast Audio</a> to provide an easy way to stream your favorite tunes from your phone, tablet, or laptop to your existing speakers.

Since anyone with a phone can easily cast without pairing, you can sync your home speakers together and invite your friends to be the DJ.<br /> <br /> So grab your hairbrush microphone, dust off your tennis racket guitar, and jam out to your favorite tunes at amazing quality and in every room of your house.<br /> <br /> Posted by Tomer Shekel, Product Manager and Patron of Loud Music <span itemprop='author' itemscope='itemscope' itemtype='http://schema.org/Person'> <meta content='https://plus.google.com/116899029375914044550' itemprop='url'/> </span> </noscript> </div> </div> <div class='share'> <span class='gplus-share social-wrapper' data-href='https://plus.google.com/share?url=https://chrome.googleblog.com/2015/12/even-more-to-love-about-chromecast-audio.html'> <img alt='Share on Google+' height='24' src='https://www.gstatic.com/images/branding/google_plus/2x/ic_w_post_gplus_black_24dp.png' width='24'/> </span> <span class='twitter-custom social-wrapper' data-href='http://twitter.com/share?text=Google Chrome Blog:Even more to love about Chromecast Audio&url=https://chrome.googleblog.com/2015/12/even-more-to-love-about-chromecast-audio.html&via=googlechrome'> <img alt='Share on Twitter' height='24' src='https://www.gstatic.com/images/icons/material/system/2x/post_twitter_black_24dp.png' width='24'/> </span> <span class='fb-custom social-wrapper' data-href='https://www.facebook.com/sharer.php?u=https://chrome.googleblog.com/2015/12/even-more-to-love-about-chromecast-audio.html'> <img alt='Share on Facebook' height='24' src='https://www.gstatic.com/images/icons/material/system/2x/post_facebook_black_24dp.png' width='24'/> </span> </div> <div class='comment-container'> <i class='comment-img material-icons'>  </i> <span class='cmt_count_iframe_holder' data-count='0' data-onclick='' data-post-url='https://chrome.googleblog.com/2015/12/even-more-to-love-about-chromecast-audio.html' data-url='https://chrome.googleblog.com/2015/12/even-more-to-love-about-chromecast-audio.html' style='color: #4184F3;'></span> </div> <div class='post-footer'> <div class='cmt_iframe_holder' data-href='https://chrome.googleblog.com/2015/12/even-more-to-love-about-chromecast-audio.html' data-viewtype='FILTERED_POSTMOD'></div> <a href='https://plus.google.com/112374322230920073195' rel='author' style='display:none;'> Google </a> <div class='label-footer'> <span class='labels-caption'> Labels: </span> <span class='labels'> <a class='label' href='https://chrome.googleblog.com/search/label/Chrome%20Blog' rel='tag'> Chrome Blog </a> </span> </div> </div> </div> <div class='post' data-id='4620118850729518537' itemscope='' itemtype='http://schema.org/BlogPosting'> <h2 class='title' itemprop='name'> <a href='https://chrome.googleblog.com/2015/11/a-new-way-to-save-data-with-chrome-on.html' itemprop='url' title='A new way to save data with Chrome on Android '> A new way to save data with Chrome on Android </a> </h2> <div class='post-header'> <div class='published'> <span class='publishdate' itemprop='datePublished'> Monday, November 30, 2015 </span> </div> </div> <div class='post-body'> <div class='post-content' itemprop='articleBody'> <script type='text/template'> Accessing mobile websites on a slow connection can be frustrating: it can eat up your data, and it takes work to keep track of your usage.

Those frames are recorded by a video camera, and then displayed at regular intervals by your screen so you can see it as a smooth video. A typical video is recorded at 30 frames per second, and a typical screen displays at 60 times a second—so ideally, one frame is on the screen for two refreshes, and you see smooth video. Often that doesn’t happen—many videos aren’t recorded at exactly 30 frames per second, and many screens don’t display at exactly 60 times per second—which leads to inconsistent or jerky video. We’ve been working to take account of these variations in Chrome, so we can more consistently hit two frames per refresh. That means your video looks smoother.</div> <div> <br /></div> <div style="text-align: center;"> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjiTzCpav0Q4LWx0D5Am7XxULLth3uxFdl7eJL84sQywG19awCpNmCQ5DJwrWlHQIUJKKNt1kJnI1DRwCSVSbC1iHh_CuYYTU4qIUeS4gSL0EN3fgdUVan4GplizKJXttQzd2-ZRzX_yaYa/s1600/20151028+smoothness+68.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="141" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjiTzCpav0Q4LWx0D5Am7XxULLth3uxFdl7eJL84sQywG19awCpNmCQ5DJwrWlHQIUJKKNt1kJnI1DRwCSVSbC1iHh_CuYYTU4qIUeS4gSL0EN3fgdUVan4GplizKJXttQzd2-ZRzX_yaYa/s400/20151028+smoothness+68.png" width="400" /></a></div> </div> <div style="text-align: center;"> <i>In this example, 32% of video frames are displayed for the wrong length of time and 5 frames never display.  </i></div> <div style="text-align: center;"> <br /></div> <div style="text-align: center;"> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhHea44-O9V2bLS4d-MxvaQusYIFlB_hSgixHaSTI9U7CTHPyAAtLdoxIWvpJ6Ad4lH7T_SwBgmZ3TWfvBgyVyRLR6YMhoFDDLfxrDMV9B7iU7drcPHOvXDIv-ec1KkmajMFEbUoPuv875P/s1600/20151028+smoothness+99.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="145" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhHea44-O9V2bLS4d-MxvaQusYIFlB_hSgixHaSTI9U7CTHPyAAtLdoxIWvpJ6Ad4lH7T_SwBgmZ3TWfvBgyVyRLR6YMhoFDDLfxrDMV9B7iU7drcPHOvXDIv-ec1KkmajMFEbUoPuv875P/s400/20151028+smoothness+99.png" width="400" /></a></div> </div> <div style="text-align: center;"> <i>Now almost all frames are shown at regular intervals, and every frame is displayed.</i></div> <div style="text-align: center;"> <br /></div> <div> Your connection may not always be perfect, so we helped build a new open standard that your video provider uses to intelligently adjust video settings—and if your Internet connection speed dips, video quality will adjust without your input.
