Google just updated the Chrome browser and it looks good on iOS. Features a new design, layout, and functions.

Chrome on iOS

The Chrome browser now has a new look that fits well in iOS. Aside from the updated aesthetics, it now has a layout that is suitable for one hand use.  For instance, the three-dot settings menu, the back and forward arrows, along with the new tab button and the search icon, are now found on the bottom part of the browser.

While tapping the tab number on the lower right brings up the tabs in card view. From there, you can swipe to the left to go incognito mode, and to the right to view open Chrome tabs of your other devices.

The new design was actually available in the previous version of Chrome iOS. It was in beta, and was hidden in some special settings that you have to activate to use. I tried it, but it was nowhere as smooth as the final release.

The Chrome browser is available in the Apple Appstore with a file size of 101.7MB.
