So we have the Chrome 100 on the Stable channel, Chrome 101 as the new Beta and Chrome 102 as the Canary version.
Google celebrates Chrome 100 with a new icon, with more web tools applications etc:
For the first time since 2014, Chrome has a new icon. As you can see from the image above, it does not bring any significant change. Google removed some of the shadows for a simpler look.
In Chrome for Android, iPhone and iPad, Google has added a "Lite Mode" feature to save data.
The new version 100 brings a new multi-screen window placement API to the desktop Chrome desktop. This API helps web applications detect when someone has connected multiple screens to their profile.
The new version has a user-agent that provides less information on websites and a newer, much more secure "User-Agent Client Hints API". This new API has been created for less incompatibilities with sites that sometimes have glitches. Yes User agent now uses a three-digit number in the browser version:
Mozilla / 5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64) AppleWebKit / 537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome / 100.0.4896.60 Safari / 537.36
