Enable private browsing tabs in Face ID now. It’s very easy.
Despite the vast majority of users who have an Apple device use the Safari browser (which by the way just turned 20), there are people who prefer to use other browsers like Chrome, because of its compatibility if you have a Google account or need to use your saved tabs on Mac, for example.
One of the advantages of Chrome is its private tabs (although recently you can also enable incognito mode in Safari), which allows safer browsing without traces. Did you k now you can lock tabs using Face ID? These are the steps to follow.
Why block incognito tabs in Google Chrome?
One of the main advantages of using an incognito tab is that browsing data and cookies will not be saved, leaving your tracks virtually nil. For this reason, many people use it to browse sites containing sensitive information.
You can now lock these tabs so you can access them using only biometric authentication. This means that only you can see the data stored there.
Now Chrome is more secure thanks to the implementation of Face ID
How to lock your Google Chrome incognito tabs with Face ID?
The truth is that It is very easy to block Google Chrome incognito tabs with the help of Face ID (yes, like any app). The steps to follow are:
- Open the Google Chrome app on your Face ID enabled device
- Tap the 3 dots in the lower right or upper right corner on iPad.
- Now tap on the Settings option.
- On the Settings screen, select Privacy and security.
- Now enable the “Lock incognito tabs on exit” option.
- Tap OK to confirm and then tap the “Done” option.
Now whenever you close a Google Chrome window, in incognito mode, you will have to open it only with your biometric data. You can turn it off by following the steps above.
