  • The latest update to Google Chrome history now shows if a site was visited via a third-party app.
  • The small change gives users a bit of extra insight into their browsing history and habits.

It’s easy to check your Google Chrome history and scratch your head trying to remember why certain sites are on there. That can be because you were directed to the site via an app rather than while browsing on Chrome. To address this, Google just tweaked Chrome history to add an indication if a site was visited via a third-party app.

Artem Russakovskii highlighted the subtle update in a post on X. The post states, “Google Chrome history now tells you if a site was visited via a third-party app, like Google App or Google News. Neat.” It goes on to credit Hamzah Malik for spotting the change.
