Chrome's latest Android update stretches edge-to-edge for a full-screen vibe

For a long time, Android apps could go full screen right up under the status and navigation bars, but most just didn’t bother. Even though the option was there, a lot of developers stuck with the old-school layout. With the release of Android 15, Google is now making edge-to-edge the new standard, meaning all apps have to play along. Some were already ahead of the game, but Google Chrome is just now catching up. With its latest update, the browser finally goes fully edge-to-edge, giving more users a clean, immersive look.
