New Tab Page on Chrome for Android Gets A New Design, Complete with Google Search

Google is testing a new design for Chrome for Android’s new tab page, behind a flag. If you open up chrome://flags and enable the flag Enable the new NTP and restart Chrome, here is what you will see.

The first thing up there is the Google logo. I am not 100% sure but I think Google will bring Doodles to Chrome for Android as well. That should be why we have such a big Google Logo up there. What do you think?

Next up is the Google search field, complete with the microphone icon to launch voice search. When you touch the search field, the focus moves to the omnibar, and that is where you will type in your query, as usual.

Below the search field, you have the most visited websites tabs. You can swipe this list horizontally to see the complete list.

Next up is two links. Bookmarks and Other devices. And you know what they do 🙂

Think this is something you should try out?  Give it a try and let me know!
