Back in February, Google Chrome for Android introduced a new way of managing and interacting with your various tabs that are open at any given time. This new feature is known as Tab Groups, and originally started rolling out on desktop last year, before making its way to the Android app. Google isn’t slowing down with adding new and useful features, as you can now preview web pages before opening them.
When browsing around in Chrome, you can now long press and select
Preview Page in the context menu that pops up after a few seconds. But instead of just taking directly to the web page, or being forced to open it in another tab, you can get a preview of the page without navigating away from the current link that you are on.

California [US], March 11 (ANI): Google Chrome for Android has rolled out a new Preview Page option that allows users to view all the contents of a page before actually opening it on the device.
Mashable quoted a report by 9to5Google as saying that the tech giant has been working on this preview page feature for the past two years. Google has now finally started releasing the feature to Chrome 89 for Android users. Generally, a user long-presses the links and gets a context menu, now, one will also now see a preview page option between the Open in the incognito tab and Copy link address .
Google Chrome for Android is getting updated to include new Preview Page options. The feature will let users see the contents of a page before opening it on their phones. It is much like what you get on Apple’s Safari browser where if you hold on to a link you get a preview of the page. As per a report, Google has been working on this feature for the past two years. Now, it has started rolling out the feature to Chrome 89 for Android.
The feature was first spotted by 9to5Google. We were also able to verify it independently. If you want to preview a page before opening it, you need to long-press on a link in Google Chrome for Android and it will open the context menu. You’ll now see a new Preview page option between Open in incognito mode and Copy link address. When you open the Preview page, the app will display the page’s favicon, name, and domain in the top bar. It will also show an option to open the page in full screen as a part of a group of tabs from the host page. You
