News aggregators (or "RSS readers") can be built into a browser, installed on a desktop computer, or installed on a mobile device. Subscribing to RSS feeds can allow a user to keep track of many different websites in a single news aggregator, which constantly monitor sites for new content, removing the need for the user to manually check them. RSS ( RDF Site Summary or Really Simple Syndication) is a web feed that allows users and applications to access updates to websites in a standardized, computer-readable format. On the New Tab Page, you get a new “Following” feed that joins the existing Discover-driven “For you.” They are visually very similar, but the new one makes use of full-width cards that feature large cover images followed by the headline, site name, publish time, share, and overflow.Updates of a website and its related metadata ( web feed) Tapping generates a snackbar that confirms the subscription with a “Go to feed” link. If a site doesn’t use RSS, Google will use its existing content index to keep you up-to-date. Relaunch the browser as instructed.Īfter enabling, visiting most sites will reveal a “Follow” button at the very bottom of the overflow menu. Enter chrome://flags/#web-feed into the address bar and select “Enabled” from the dropdown menu. Original 6/17: The “Web Feed” - as it’s called - works on Chrome 92 (currently in the Beta channel) 94 and newer. As such, the feature can be enabled without switching to the beta app, while it’s already rolled out for an unspecified “ % of people.”Ĭhrome engineering director Adrienne Porter Felt said an iOS version “is in progress,” while a desktop Web Feed is “planned but a bit further out.” Update 10/8: Google has decided to more widely test the RSS-backed “Web Feed.” Namely, it’s being tested in Chrome 94 (the current stable release) and later versions. It’s considered an experiment that might not ever launch, but you can test the RSS-powered “Web Feed” in Chrome today.
During I/O 2021, Google announced that Chrome for Android would be testing a built-in RSS reader.
