New • Screen Time: Comet now supports iOS Screen Time for web browsing, keeping website limits in place as you switch tabs. Fixed • Auto-Lock: Your screen now dims and locks normally when Comet is idle. • Background play: Fixed the toggle so videos can keep playing when you leave the app. Also: Fixes for page translation, history search, tab reordering, and Discover source menus, plus smaller fixes and polish throughout.

Bug fixes and improvements. Fixed an issue where open tabs did not carry over after updating.

New • Advanced Ad blocking — Brand new engine that blocks far more ads, hides leftover ad slots, gets past "disable your ad blocker" walls, and stops cookie consent banners. Control it all in Adblock & Privacy settings. • Settings Refresh — Reorganized into clear groups so everything is easier to find. Also: Upgraded Chromium engine, fixes for startup crashes, Shortcut launch, iPad prompts, and Top Sites flicker, other smaller fixes and polish throughout.

Also: fixes for keyboard opening, updated dictation, upgraded Chromium engine, other smaller fixes and polish throughout.

New & shiny • Auto-close old tabs — a new Tabs setting tidies away tabs you haven't touched in a while. • Type right away — opening a new tab now brings up the keyboard automatically, from every entry point (with a setting to turn it off). Bug fixes & improvements We updated to Chromium 150 for speed, compatibility, and security. Pages no longer slip under the status bar, find in page is steadier, and tab actions look sharper in dark mode and incognito.

New: • Mute a tab — mute or unmute a page's sound right from Page actions. • Tab settings — new Tab Settings in Settings: auto-close inactive tabs (after a day, week, or month) and auto-open the keyboard on new tabs. • Assistant, one tap away — the Assistant now sits right next to the address bar on any page and on the New Tab page. Fixed: • Find on page — reopening Find on page no longer crashes the app. • Attach a file — attaching a file from the address bar no longer hides the text box. • New Tab page — the feedback banner no longer overlaps the address bar. Also: smoother address-bar focus and typing, and lots of smaller polish and fixes.

New: • Reader mode — read articles in a clean, distraction-free view, images and all. • Ad blocking levels — choose Standard, Aggressive, or Disabled in Settings. • Mute a tab — mute or unmute page sound from Page actions. Fixed: • iPad crash — resizing the window no longer crashes the app. • Stay signed in — Sync no longer signs you out on restart. Also: iPad text zoom works again, favicons load instantly across bookmarks and tabs, live theme now recolors the bottom bar, and lots of smaller polish and fixes.

Bug fixes & improvements • Fixed crashes when closing all your tabs at once and when opening Settings during setup. • Restored sign-in after the OAuth redirect. • Resized the Add device QR scanner so it fits in landscape. • Tidied up iPad menus and tabs — close tabs to the right, omnibox tab attach, and scrolling to your active tab. • Correct favicons in incognito, download banners that fit long file names, and refreshed privacy copy.

New & shiny • Truly private tabs — your incognito tab grid now hides behind a starfield until you unlock with Face ID. Bug fixes & improvements Smarter address bar suggestions that favor your history and bookmarks, snappier results, and a fix for URLs vanishing after switching tabs.

New & shiny • Password manager — save, search, and autofill your logins without leaving the browser. Bug fixes & improvements Lots of small polish this release — sharper password and account icons, a fix for "Search Web" on selected text, calmer omnibox tooltips, and a friendlier default-browser setup. Plus the usual round of stability fixes.

What's new • Sidebar that remembers — the assistant sidebar now keeps its state per tab and across launches. • Sharper on iPad — refined the assistant sidebar layout. • Smarter address bar — the omnibox now adapts its color to the page you're on. • Computer, polished — cleaner activity tooltip and a tidier sheet header. Bug fixes & improvements Added sign-in prompts for sites that require a username and password. Smoother tabs (previews, zoom transitions, and iPad rotation all behave now), a faster cold launch, and better favicons. Recently Closed and reopened threads stay where they should, and Search results pages render more cleanly.

Major improvements • Phone number actions — Call, FaceTime, Message, or save to Contacts from any page in one tap. • Polished iPad sidebar — calmer slide animation, tidier layout, sized to fit your window. • Finance Deep Dive in a tab — long-form analysis opens as a real browser tab. • Search results remember their place — switch away and come back without losing context. • Drag images into the assistant — drop a picture from any tab and it lands as an image. • Omni-box adapts to the page — no more flicker when switching between light and dark sites. • Recently Closed stays cleared — Clear All actually sticks across restarts. • Deleted threads stay deleted — opening an old link won't bring one back. Also: Crash fixes for clearing data and closing tabs, sharper and more stable favicons, cleaner bottom controls on iPhone, plus other fixes and polish.

Highlights • Chromium 148 — latest engine, with web platform and security updates. • Assistant sidebar on iPad — keep the sidekick docked while you browse. • Better text readability with dark theme on websites.
