A faster, more stable Chrome on iOS
Wednesday, January 27, 2016
Out-of-process rendering was one of Chrome’s earliest innovations, and we’ve always wanted to bring its benefits to our iOS users. Unfortunately UIWebView, the component used to render web pages on iOS, is in-process, so that’s never been possible before. The introduction of WKWebView in iOS 8 gave us that opportunity, though migrating to the new framework brought significant
challenges
. In Chrome 48 we’ve made the switch from UIWebView to WKWebView, leading to dramatic improvements in stability, speed, responsiveness, and web compatibility.
The biggest change is in stability: with WKWebView’s out-of-process rendering, when the web view crashes or runs out of memory, it won’t bring down all of Chrome with it. As a result, Chrome crashes
70% less
with WKWebView. Even when counting the “Aw, Snap!” page shown when the renderer crashes, there’s still a big improvement.
Outside of stability, WKWebView brings many other benefits. Web compatibility is improved with support for features like IndexedDB, bringing the
HTML5test
score for Chrome on iOS from 391 up to 409. Switching to background tabs will cause pages to reload 25% less often. JavaScript speed on benchmarks such as
Octane
is an order of magnitude faster, and scrolling is smoother and more responsive.
The Chrome team is committed to improving stability and performance. We hope that you enjoy these changes and we are working hard on further improving your browsing experience on iOS.

Introducing the Security Panel in DevTools
Tuesday, January 26, 2016
The web platform is becoming increasingly powerful thanks to new APIs such as
service worker
. Security risk is always a concern, which is why many of these new features
require secure origins
. HTTPS
preserves the integrity of your website and ensures connections with your users are encrypted. In an effort to make deploying HTTPS easier, Chrome 48 beta includes a new security panel in
DevTools

The security panel displays connection information for every network request, demystifying what connection errors keep you away from the green lock that represents a secure connection. Glancing at the overview for a given page, you can find information about:
Certificate verification
, indicating whether your site has proven its identity with a TLS certificate.
TLS connection, indicating whether your site uses a modern,
secure protocol and ciphersuite
.
Subresource security, indicating whether your site loads insecure HTTP subresources (otherwise known as
mixed content
).
In addition to debugging an insecure TLS connection, you can also easily check the state of your subresources. Clicking on a subresource gives you in-depth information about the security state of a given connection, as well as details about its certificate.
For more details about the new security panel, check out our
post on the Google developer blog
. If you’re new to TLS, you can get started with our
developer resources
on Web Fundamentals.
Stay tuned for more features coming to Chrome, helping you
get to the green lock and beyond
!
