  • Chrome 135 brings an edge-to-edge layout to Android, letting web content extend behind the gesture bar.
  • The update is rolling out gradually via a server-side switch.
  • For now, it only works on small-screen devices using gesture navigation, not tablets or three-button navigation.

Google is starting to roll out a more immersive look for Chrome on Android, bringing an edge-to-edge layout that uses more of your phone’s screen. The change was first debuted in testing last month, and it’s now beginning to reach more users as part of the Chrome 135 update.

As 9to5Google demonstrated, the update lets Chrome draw content all the way down to the bottom of the screen, behind Android’s gesture navigation bar. That bar no longer appears on top of a solid background when scrolling. Instead, it floats transparently over web pages for a cleaner, full-screen feel.
