Chrome Browser to Add a Native Feed Reader Soon

Google Chrome May Soon be Able to Translate Text Within Images

As reported by About Chromebooks, Google is working on a dedicated feed reader in the latest Chrome Canary version – that’ll let users catch up with any new updates from their favorite sites.

This has already been available on the Chrome iOS and Android clients and may soon come to the web version. A force opening of this feature in it’s half-baked version shows a new in-window panel where users can read the stories from these “Following” sites.

Native Feed Reader in Chrome Browser

Feed readers like RSS, or more recently Feedly or Flipboard, is a blessing. These allow users to subscribe to their favorite news blogs and read all the new updates in an interactive manner and in one place.

Google, too had a similar platform once, called Google Reader, which it killed long ago. Yet, it showed up a similar service once again in October last year, with mobile clients for both Android and iOS.

Now, it’s making one for the web version too. As spotted by About Chromebooks, Google is working on a native feed reader in the latest version of Chrome Canary. While it’s still not functional, they managed to turn it on to see what it looks like.

Right-clicking on their favorite site, users will be able to “Follow” them to read any new updates from them later in the inbuilt reader section. This is an in-window panel appearing like when we open a PDF in Chrome.

On mobile clients, users can see the updates right beneath the search box of this Chrome home tab, with the option for following them set in menu settings.

While we wait to see how the web version of this feed reader works, a Chrome engineer named Adrienne Porter Felt said we should see more improvements coming to the mobile clients before the desktop counterpart is even launched.
