Google has announced its first update to Google Chrome for iOS, adding the ability to share pages from the browser directly on your favorite social network, including Facebook and Twitter.
Google Chrome for iOS was announced and launched at the company's annual developer's conference in June.
The mobile browser offers a number of features already available in its desktop version, including synched tabs; if you're checking out a website on your iPhone, you can open it on your desktop computer, and vice versa. Users can also share saved passwords between devices, bookmarks and search history.
Wednesday's update allows you to share webpages via email, Google+, Facebook and Twitter. It also offers a number of other bug fixes, and stability and security improvements.
The updated version of Chrome for iOS is now available in the App Store.
