Chrome Beta for Android gets new gesture controls, advanced image search

Google has released two new betas of their Chrome browser for the desktop and Android. Both the desktop and Android versions will get a new advanced image search option where you can right-click or long-press to bring up a menu option to search for that image on Google.

With this update, Android users will also have a few new gesture controls. Previously, users would swipe from the edge of the screen to rotate through open tabs. The new Chrome Beta for Android moves this feature to the top toolbar, making it harder to trigger a tab switch accidentally. Swipe left or right on the toolbar and you’ll cycle through your open tabs. Swipe down from the toolbar brings up the card-style tab switcher. Last but not least, users can save a tab by tapping and holding on the menu button, then dragging their finger to the option they want.
