It gives apps more control over their web experience, and makes transitions between native and web content more seamless without having to resort to a WebView. Similar to when using the browser, users frequently want to share the content that is rendered inside the Custom Tabs.<br /><br />Custom Tabs do not provide a default sharing experience and many apps don’t provide a way for users to share content at all. This results in a poor user experience where users must find the share action from the overflow menu in the browser. This action takes the user outside of the app and opens the link in the browser, resulting in decreased app engagement.<br /><br />In Chrome 88 we're running an experiment to automatically add a default share action in certain scenarios. For example, where an app has not specified its own <a href="https://developers.google.com/web/android/custom-tabs/implementation-guide#configure_a_custom_action_button" target="_blank">Action Button</a>, we will display one in the top bar. Where a site has specified its own top bar Action Button, a default share action is added to the overflow menu.<div><br /></div><div><span id="docs-internal-guid-cec28fab-7fff-ca9b-a9aa-2ff22b8e4c0c"><br /><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Roboto, sans-serif; font-size: 11pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="border: none; display: inline-block; height: 605px; overflow: hidden; width: 286px;"><img height="605" src="https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/jv6EmH2XrLFGWAz2018Mp_t7yCND-2uuWBYxgVDUynThnIJDJHTnjnMyUHa8DBhgr0KqI0zqye6ngU-vqVCRrdzGiySAzfL8ycrrHiK0RuIYPYeNcQeX-DBikoolXIaMLhuZIXuUzA" style="margin-left: 0px; margin-top: 0px;" width="286" /></span></span></p><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 16pt; margin-top: 0pt; text-align: center;"><span style="color: #666666; font-family: Roboto, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">A default Action Button that shares the URL is added to the top bar when the application doesn’t provide one.</span></p></span><h3 style="text-align: left;"><span>What do I need to do to enable the new default share action button in?</span></h3><span>Nothing!

This action takes the user outside of the app and opens the link in the browser, resulting in decreased app engagement.<br /><br />In Chrome 88 we're running an experiment to automatically add a default share action in certain scenarios. For example, where an app has not specified its own <a href="https://developers.google.com/web/android/custom-tabs/implementation-guide#configure_a_custom_action_button" target="_blank">Action Button</a>, we will display one in the top bar. Where a site has specified its own top bar Action Button, a default share action is added to the overflow menu.<div><br /></div><div><span id="docs-internal-guid-cec28fab-7fff-ca9b-a9aa-2ff22b8e4c0c"><br /><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Roboto, sans-serif; font-size: 11pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="border: none; display: inline-block; height: 605px; overflow: hidden; width: 286px;"><img height="605" src="https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/jv6EmH2XrLFGWAz2018Mp_t7yCND-2uuWBYxgVDUynThnIJDJHTnjnMyUHa8DBhgr0KqI0zqye6ngU-vqVCRrdzGiySAzfL8ycrrHiK0RuIYPYeNcQeX-DBikoolXIaMLhuZIXuUzA" style="margin-left: 0px; margin-top: 0px;" width="286" /></span></span></p><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 16pt; margin-top: 0pt; text-align: center;"><span style="color: #666666; font-family: Roboto, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">A default Action Button that shares the URL is added to the top bar when the application doesn’t provide one.</span></p></span><h3 style="text-align: left;"><span>What do I need to do to enable the new default share action button in?</span></h3><span>Nothing!

Our goal is to understand -- through real-world usage -- whether showing URLs this way helps users realize they’re visiting a malicious website, and protects them from phishing and social engineering attacks.</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="border: none; display: inline-block; height: 254px; overflow: hidden; width: 592px;"><img height="254" src="https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/19onWpGRt7-kVhtL1k2vPaRCNh0fYDrGxT8bq8sT0rIiAMlAZyW_Ckzjsfv1TD92Yxr5iocJPPh5U3XJI5T9RJsVu44lhW3qwgff8hm13pZ7TgYCnTBlgUwgTQHqH9fGYSCakXoPMg" style="margin-left: 0px; margin-top: 0px;" width="592" /></span></span></p><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-style: italic; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">An experiment in Chrome 86 shows the domain name by default and full URL on hover</span></p><br /><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-weight: 700; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><br /></span></p><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-weight: 700; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Prefer to see the full URL?</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">If you find yourself in the experimental group, and you’d like to view the full URL for a given site, you’ll have two options.

While we can’t bring everyone together physically, we can still bring great content straight to your couch, kitchen or hammock-in-the-backyard. A digital event also gives us the opportunity to break out of physical constraints. We are no longer limited by space for attendance, and anyone, literally anywhere in the world, can “join” us at the click of a button (Oh and we, as part of the web community, should be proud of making that happen. Everyday!)</span></span></div> <b style="font-weight: normal;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></b> <b style="font-weight: normal;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></b> <br /> <div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.2; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"> <span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-size: 12pt; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: 400; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">To really make this a regionally inclusive event, we will “travel” to three different time zones so we can answer your questions real-time, in your active hours.

While we can’t bring everyone together physically, we can still bring great content straight to your couch, kitchen or hammock-in-the-backyard. A digital event also gives us the opportunity to break out of physical constraints. We are no longer limited by space for attendance, and anyone, literally anywhere in the world, can “join” us at the click of a button (Oh and we, as part of the web community, should be proud of making that happen. Everyday!)</span></span></div> <b style="font-weight: normal;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></b> <b style="font-weight: normal;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></b> <br /> <div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.2; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"> <span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-size: 12pt; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: 400; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">To really make this a regionally inclusive event, we will “travel” to three different time zones so we can answer your questions real-time, in your active hours.

More concretely, Chrome will automatically switch to DNS-over-HTTPS if your current DNS provider supports it, and provide manual configuration options for users who wish to use a specific provider. DNS-over-HTTPS introduces a significant change to the Domain Name System (DNS), a system designed more than 35 years ago that is central to how the web works even to this day. It’s the sort of change that requires careful planning and collaboration, which explains why it took us a little more than 2 years, <a href="https://blog.chromium.org/2019/09/experimenting-with-same-provider-dns.html">gathering test data</a>, listening to feedback, and <a href="https://blog.chromium.org/2019/10/addressing-some-misconceptions-about.html">addressing some misconceptions</a>, to arrive at a design that put our users first with reasonable defaults and accessible controls.<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <h3> Unencrypted DNS</h3> <br /> When you want to access your favorite website, your browser first needs to determine which server is hosting it, a step known as “DNS lookup”. When DNS was first introduced, the internet was in its infancy, and the web did not yet exist. There was no e-commerce, no online banks, and many people did not yet see a strong need for encryption on the web. It took until 1994 for encryption to take-off with the introduction of the HTTPS protocol.

Thus far, the unencrypted nature of DNS has meant that features that extend DNS could randomly fail due to causes such as network equipment that may drop or modify newly introduced DNS fields. As DNS-over-HTTPS grows, it will put this concern aside because it benefits from the aforementioned HTTPS properties and sets a new reliable baseline to build upon.<br /> <br /> <br /> <h3> Responsibly deploying DNS-over-HTTPS</h3> Changing how DNS works is a non-trivial task. In particular, with more than 35 years of history, a lot of additional services and features have been built on top of DNS. For instance, some Internet Service Providers offer family-safe filtering via DNS. So, while we would love to have everyone benefit from Secure DNS immediately, we also know that we have to get there in a way that doesn’t break user expectations. Navigating these goals led us to the “same-provider DNS-over-HTTPS upgrade” approach that we <a href="https://blog.chromium.org/2019/09/experimenting-with-same-provider-dns.html">experimented</a> with at the end of 2019. The successful experiment gave us confidence about the performance and stability aspects for both Chrome’s Secure DNS and our partners’ DNS-over-HTTPS services. It also highlighted opportunities to improve the auto-upgrade success rate.<br /> <br /> Here is how this “same-provider DNS-over-HTTP upgrade” approach works. Chrome maintains a list of DNS providers known to support DNS-over-HTTPS. Chrome uses this list to match the user’s current DNS service provider with that provider’s DNS-over-HTTPS service, if the provider offers one. By keeping the user’s chosen provider, we can preserve any extra services offered by the DNS service provider, such as family-safe filtering, and therefore avoid breaking user expectations. Furthermore, if there’s any hiccup with the DNS-over-HTTPS connection, Chrome will fall back to the regular DNS service of the user’s current provider by default, in order to avoid any disruption, while periodically retrying to secure the DNS communication. Finally, to avoid an issue that otherwise could arise for users running Windows, Chrome will also disable Secure DNS if Windows parental controls are enabled, so that any filtering software that relies on a regular DNS connection can continue to work while we collaborate with the ecosystem on ways for Secure DNS to co-exist with these filtering solutions.<br /> <br /> <br /> If you are an IT administrator, Chrome will disable Secure DNS if it detects a managed environment via the presence of one or more enterprise policies. We’ve also added new DNS-over-HTTPS enterprise policies to allow for a managed configuration of Secure DNS and encourage IT administrators to look into deploying DNS-over-HTTPS for their users.<br /> <br /> <br /> We believe that our approach strikes a good balance between moving security & privacy forward and maintaining user expectations. However, if this default behavior doesn’t suit your needs, head over to Chrome’s settings and search for Secure DNS to configure it to your liking. For instance, you can disable the feature altogether, or configure it in a no-fallback mode by choosing a specific DNS-over-HTTPS service provider among a list of popular options or by specifying a custom provider.<br /> <div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.7999999999999998; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; text-align: center;"> <span style="background-color: white; color: #212121; font-family: "lato" , sans-serif; font-size: 10pt; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: 400; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre;"><span style="border: none; display: inline-block; height: 425px; overflow: hidden; width: 476px;"><img height="508.55500000000006" src="https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/zem6Estu-y7LDKLscD6R_08bBVr1lXNda5PjEWMi7KizMcxCs6NqyaIv0htyS-zOPnSwC1b1084HpbMo3ZsJAHwHuuuVNTl_-fbfcgJX5h-6pJzZ-ipl3gAtXCCEh9_znbg4b6FK" style="margin-left: -17.374px; margin-top: -43.0525px;" width="508.17760000000004" /></span></span></div> As ISPs and DNS service providers make progress on their DNS-over-HTTPS services, we expect to support more options in future milestones via <a href="https://docs.google.com/document/d/128i2YTV2C7T6Gr3I-81zlQ-_Lprnsp24qzy_20Z1Psw/edit?usp=sharing">our DNS-over-HTTPS program</a>. <br /> <br /> Chrome’s Secure DNS will progressively be made available on Chrome OS, Windows and Mac OS with Android and Linux coming soon.<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <h3> Onwards</h3> <br /> While these are early days, we are proud of playing a role in the adoption of DNS-over-HTTPS and helping our users benefit from a safer and more private way of browsing the web.

More concretely, Chrome will automatically switch to DNS-over-HTTPS if your current DNS provider supports it, and provide manual configuration options for users who wish to use a specific provider. DNS-over-HTTPS introduces a significant change to the Domain Name System (DNS), a system designed more than 35 years ago that is central to how the web works even to this day. It’s the sort of change that requires careful planning and collaboration, which explains why it took us a little more than 2 years, <a href="https://blog.chromium.org/2019/09/experimenting-with-same-provider-dns.html">gathering test data</a>, listening to feedback, and <a href="https://blog.chromium.org/2019/10/addressing-some-misconceptions-about.html">addressing some misconceptions</a>, to arrive at a design that put our users first with reasonable defaults and accessible controls.<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <h3> Unencrypted DNS</h3> <br /> When you want to access your favorite website, your browser first needs to determine which server is hosting it, a step known as “DNS lookup”. When DNS was first introduced, the internet was in its infancy, and the web did not yet exist. There was no e-commerce, no online banks, and many people did not yet see a strong need for encryption on the web. It took until 1994 for encryption to take-off with the introduction of the HTTPS protocol. Nowadays, the HTTPS protocol is <a href="https://transparencyreport.google.com/https/overview">almost ubiquitous</a> and provides strong security and privacy guarantees. It helps you browse or transact on the web without fear of having your credit card or personal information stolen by other internet users, even when using a public WiFi connection.

We have a long history of protecting our users from annoying and harmful experiences—like blocking pop-up windows and warning users if a page has malware. For the last few years, we’ve worked to address a common complaint among Chrome users: annoying, intrusive ads. In 2018, we started removing the ads from websites that continually show intrusive ads that violate industry standards. Google also updated our own advertising offerings to ensure that we’re not selling or serving the kinds of ads that Internet users find the most annoying. </span><span style="background-color: transparent;
