Google is upgrading the browsing experience on desktop with Save to Drive, PDF Annotations and Split View features in Chrome. "These tools, developed for both everyday and enterprise users, are built to help you focus, collaborate and get things done more quickly," said the company while announcing the features.

All three features should be appearing for users on Chrome 145 across the globe.

You can now highlight text and add notes to a PDF from within the Chrome Browser with PDF annotations. This eliminates the need to download the file and open a separate application just to make a quick note. This feature is apt for quick digital signatures, reviewing a work report, making notes on a class syllabus or simply highlighting a key section of a personal document.

As for Split View, it allows you to view two tabs at the same time, "providing a more streamlined, flexible way to work." Split view is a built-in, intuitive tool in Chrome that helps you create a single, organized space, saving you time and reducing some back-and-forth tab fatigue, as per the company.

"Our work with early testers has shown that split view is already helping people multitask and get more done on the web. One teacher told us they use split view to more easily grade papers in the classroom, others love using it to take notes on YouTube videos, and developers are even using it to reference documentation while they code," said Google while sharing experiences of the testers.

With this feature, Google says it is making it easy to know exactly where to find your downloads. You can now save PDFs directly to your Drive from Chrome without downloading and re-uploading them. It's automatically organized into a dedicated "Saved from Chrome" folder in your Drive. "This keeps your important documents backed up, organized and easy to search for later, from any of your devices."
