Chrome Dev

Chrome Dev for Android

Chrome Dev is Google’s early-release channel for the Chrome browser on Android. It gives users access to browser changes and new features before they move through the wider testing process. The app suits people who want to see what Google is working on ahead of the standard Chrome release, even when some parts are still being refined.

What it is for

This is a testing-focused browser rather than the most conservative Chrome option. New behavior may appear here first, giving experienced users a practical way to try upcoming changes and decide which ones are useful. The channel also provides an opportunity to send feedback that can help shape later versions of Chrome for Android.

Using it alongside Chrome

Chrome Dev can be installed alongside other Chrome channels on the same Android device. That makes it suitable for comparing the early version with a regular Chrome setup, or for keeping everyday browsing separate from testing. You can use the Dev channel when you want to explore changes without replacing your existing browser channel.
