A beta version of Google Chrome 77 for Android revealed that the browser's dark mode would soon be smarter and less likely to invert the color of images, even though their backgrounds were mostly white.
As Android Police explains, when dark mode first came to Google Chrome, it was little more than a way to reverse the colors of a whole site.
The release of Chrome 76 in July was marked by a significant improvement, the automatic activation of a dark version of a site, if it already exists, and the l '. color inversion if there was no alternative.
Although applying a filter to invert colors works well in some cases, it is not ideal for photos and can make them almost unreadable. A new Chrome 77 beta appears to resolve this issue and is much less likely to revert the color of images when you force dark mode on a site, even if these images contain a lot of white.
The Chrome beta also seems less likely to turn gray text bright white, providing a more comfortable reading experience closer to what the site's creators originally intended.
The Chrome 77 beta also revealed a few other features that, while small, could make a big difference to your browsing experience.
The beta version includes a new attribute called "enterkeyhint", which allows web application developers to decide what the "Enter" key should do when the user types something. For example, you can move the focus to the next field on a form, check a box, or submit the form.
Web applications will also be able to access and view your contacts so you can easily choose who you want to share with. Fortunately, it seems that there are safeguards in place to prevent this tool from being misused.
To discover the new features yourself, download the latest version of Chrome Canary from the Google Play Store and start browsing.
