Chrome's search bar offers enhanced autocomplete, automatic typo correction, and additional features

Google, the tech giant, has unveiled five new updates to the Chrome address bar aimed at simplifying web searches. These updates encompass smarter autocompletion, automatic typo corrections, in-bar searches within bookmark folders, suggestions for popular sites, and an improved visual layout.

One notable improvement is the Chrome address bar's ability to autocomplete URLs based on your past search history. Unlike before, where it only autocompleted URLs when entered from the beginning, now you can simply type a relevant word, such as 'flights.' The address bar will intelligently complete it as 'https://www.google.com/travel/flights' for you.

Additionally, if you make a typo or enter a word incorrectly, the address bar will promptly detect it and provide suggestions based on your previously visited sites. Furthermore, you can now conduct searches directly within your bookmark folders, all from the convenience of the address bar.

The address bar will also suggest popular websites, even if you haven't visited them before or if you've mistyped the URL. When you begin typing the name of a well-known site, the address bar will display the website's URL in the suggestions list, allowing you to navigate there without the need to conduct a separate search.

The final change introduces an 'improved visual layout' to the address bar. Google has also made it more responsive, ensuring faster results as soon as you start typing.
