Google Chrome now has new features for all- memory-saving and energy-saving modes.

On devices using the most recent version of its Chrome desktop web browser, Google has launched optimization improvements to increase battery life and memory use. The launch of Chrome 108 in December of last year coincided with the initial announcement of Chrome’s new Energy Saver and Memory Saver modes. Now, global rollouts of Chrome 110 desktops for Mac, Windows, and Chromebooks are beginning.

Memory Saving Mode

The Memory Saving option simply puts idle Chrome tabs to sleep in order to free up RAM for more demanding tasks and improve browsing performance. If you’re a tab hoarder, don’t worry; these inactive tabs are still accessible and may be reopened whenever you want to continue where you left off. You can designate your most often visited websites as being excluded from Memory Saver to guarantee they always operate at peak efficiency.

Energy Saver Mode

This mode will apply to background website activities in Energy Saving mode, including visual features like smooth scrolling on animations or videos. You can specify whether it begins operating as soon as you unplug a device running Chrome from a power source or when a device running Chrome is down to 20 percent battery. Nevertheless, Google hasn’t said how much power the feature would spare.

This mode starts limiting visual effects running in the background of websites when your device is at 20 percent battery.

On devices running Chrome 110, Memory Saving and Energy Saver are both turned on by default. You can turn them off at any moment by going to the Performance tab of your system settings.
