If you use multiple tabs while working in Chrome, its latest update has some good news for you. Now you can quickly find what you need by simply typing “@”. Yeah, just like a mention on Twitter or Slack now you only need to write this character to get quick information from your bookmarks, your history and more.

This feature was introduced in version 108 of Google Chrome. If you want to get it, you just need to update it, although the browser will usually update itself automatically when it has the opportunity. With this tool, you will be able to access certain tabs that you know you already have open without having to search the web for the term again. The company wanted to improve the efficiency of its desktop application, and it succeeded..

Google introduces us to the new Chrome feature on its official blog, where it is described as follows:

Sometimes it can be difficult to find the desired tab or bookmark in Chrome. Good news: Chrome’s desktop address bar just got an update that might help. You can now search your Chrome tabs, bookmarks, and history right from the address bar.

For example, if you want to find a help guide that you bookmarked a long time ago but can’t remember where you put it, you just need to write @ in chrome search bar; select a search category (tabs, history or bookmarks) and then enter any part of the title or keywords.

So, if you have hundreds of tabs open in Chrome but want to find a YouTube tab with your favorite podcast playing in the background, just type @ followed by the word Tabs. Now find YouTube or the name of the content being played. It’s that simple and without having to search one by one.

Another novelty is called Custom Search Shortcuts. Google describes them as a way to search directly on the websites you visit on a regular basis. You just need to set it up in the menu”chrome://settings/search enginesand manage them yourself.

If you want to know what version of Google Chrome you have, just go to the three dots in the top corner, click “Help” and then “About Google Chrome”.
