Use Chrome’s AI-powered “Help me write” toolGoogle Chrome now integrates generative AI features directly into the browser. The “Help me write” tool can draft emails, fill forms, or create posts on websites with editable text boxes. Simply right-click on any text field and choose “Help me write”. You can then give a short prompt — like “write a product review” or “compose a professional email” — and Chrome will generate content instantly.

Enable Memory Saver and Energy Saver modesChrome’s updated Performance section includes smarter memory and power optimization. The Memory Saver mode automatically pauses inactive tabs to free up RAM, while Energy Saver reduces background processes when your laptop battery is low. To enable, go to Settings > Performance and toggle both features. You can also whitelist specific sites that you want to keep active.

Group and save tabs with AI-based Smart Tab OrganizerManaging dozens of open tabs is easier with the Smart Tab Organizer introduced in 2025. Chrome’s AI automatically groups related tabs — like shopping, work, or travel — based on content. You can also save tab groups to reopen later from the Bookmarks bar. To use it, right-click on a tab and choose “Organize similar tabs.”

Create and share custom themes using AIGoogle has added AI-generated themes to personalize your browsing experience. You can create new Chrome themes by describing them — for example, “sunset mountains in minimalist style.” Chrome instantly designs a matching color palette and wallpaper. Access this feature from Customize Chrome > Change theme > Create with AI. You can also share your themes with others via a generated link.

It checks URLs and downloads against constantly updated online threat databases, reducing the risk of phishing or malware. To activate, go to Settings > Privacy and Security > Safe Browsing and select Enhanced protection.
