San Francisco: Tech giant Google has announced that its web browser, Chrome, will now provide users with product price drop notifications.
Users don’t need to refresh the page every day to see the price of any product. The tech giant said in a blog post on Thursday that they will have the option to receive email or mobile notifications from Chrome if the price drops.
This feature is available on desktop and Android devices in the US and can be turned on by selecting “Track Prices” in the Chrome address bar.
Along with price drop notifications, Google has also rolled out other new features.
When a user adds an item to their cart, Chrome finds available discount codes from the retailer and displays them automatically during checkout.
Additionally, users can open a new tab anytime they need to keep track of their existing cart, where they can also see available discounts. Both features are available now on desktop, starting in the US.
With the help of the desktop version of Chrome, users can now right-click an image and select “Search Image Using Google Lens” to get immediate results in a side panel.
The results will show similar options offered by retailers and prices that fit the user’s budget. It will also show if the item is in stock or backordered.
Chrome will help users save time by autofilling everything using previously saved information such as user addresses or payment details for Google Pay.
“We recently expanded the ability to save your payment information to your Google Account to 67 more countries,” the tech giant said.
Users can go into Chrome settings under “AutoFill” to enter their preferred address and payment information.
