As on desktops: Android 12 will allow you to open multiple Google Chrome windows

Chrome tabs can be organized differently depending on the platform.

can be grouped into one or more windows, which can then be modified using your OS's window manager.

On Android, you can also merge tabs intogroups, but you can't open multiple instances of Chrome like you do on a desktop. However, everything will change with the release of Android 12 and the new version of Google Chrome. Google is working to add multi-instance support and a window manager to Chrome for Android.

Over the last few weeks in Chromium GerritSeveral code changes have been submitted, labeled “multi-instance”. These code changes add a “new window” to the Google Chrome context menu when the device enters split-screen mode. When you click on the “New Window” a new instance of Chrome opens on the other half of the screen.

After opening a second instance of Chrome inThe "Manage Windows" button appears in the context menu, which displays all active windows, the focus of the window, the name of the active tab in each window, and the number of open tabs in each window. In total, you can open up to 5 windows, and the number of tabs open in each window is not limited. Finally, the state of each instance is stored in Google Chrome's general settings, allowing windows to persist across reboots.
