If browsers were cars, Chrome would be considered the sleekest of sports cars. By the same token, it would also be singled out for its significant flaws when it comes to privacy and security. Google Chrome looks and feels sleeker than other browsers. It’s also really popular — with more than 60 percent of the web browser market share — so plenty of users are relying on it and taking advantage of its many features, which include speed and ease of use. Chrome can be combined with other Google apps like Gmail and it effectively operates with websites that use advanced scripting, which makes it a stand-out among browsers.
“Chrome is a popular and reliable internet browser,” Stephen Curry, CEO of CocoSign. “It works equally fast on an iPhone, but just using it has some consequences. Opening many tabs or running heavy graphic-intensive web pages drains the ram and consequently slows down the iPhone system. Besides, the browser is itself a privacy nightmare and users should be warned. It sounds dramatic to suggest ditching Chrome for an alternative if you are a power user. But, when it comes to security and privacy, I recommend using the ‘Safe Browsing’ option in Chrome. You will be protected from malicious and dangerous sites.”
With that in mind, there are other issues you could be ignoring when using Chrome — including this mistake you can make when using Chrome on your iPhone.
