better browser (on both desktop and mobile) to help users take advantage of all
the web has to offer in a safe and secure way.Chrome is available across all
major platforms — iOS, Android, Windows, Mac, Linux and Chrome OS. We also built
Chrome as an open source project so the entire web ecosystem could benefit from
the latest innovations in speed, simplicity and security.
