Google Chrome may get a Focus Mode soon - silversurfer - 25 February 19

Quote:Google added a new experimental flag to Chrome Canary recently called Focus Mode. Chrome Canary is the cutting edge development version of Google Chrome; new features land in Canary first before they are moved to Developer, Beta, and Stable versions of the web browser.

Focus Mode is a brand new feature and it appears that it is not fully implemented yet. The description reveals little, "If enabled, allows the user to switch to Focus Mode", and there is no switch or option to access the mode yet.

It is not uncommon for a feature to land in waves in the browser. Google may have added the Focus Mode flag already but not the underlying code or part of it. It does not take long, usually, before a feature that was partially introduced becomes fully available.

Focus Mode is available as an experimental flag currently in Chrome Canary.
  1. Load chrome://flags/#focus-mode
  2. Set the status of the experimental flag to Enabled.
  3. Restart Google Chrome.
Google will introduce the functionality with an upcoming update. Note that functionality may change or may be removed entirely at any time.
