s9 plus chrome address bar

[hnguyen]

I bought two S9 plus, one for me and the other for my wife. After setting mine up I noticed the Chrome address bar is located at the bottom, but my wife is at the top.

I'm not sure why mine is different. This is the first time I've seen the address bar at the bottom instead of the top. Anyone here have an explanation? Thanks.

Chrome Beta had the bottom bar for a while, which I really liked. I don't have it anymore on my S9+, but I hope they bring it back.

Interesting. I'm not using Chrome beta. I'm using the phone right out of the box an noticed Chrome's address bar at the bottom. It's a US unlocked version if it matters.

T-Mobile variant here. Top bar on both Chrome and Chrome Beta. Yes, interesting.

Below is a screenshot. Of the address bar at the bottom. I cleared the Chrome Data/Cache and reset the chrome flags to default and its still the same. I did the same to my wife's phone and the address bar is still at the top.

Have you checked Chrome's settings? I disable Chrome so can't really look into it.

I checked, but I don't see any settings that would change the location of the address bar.

Update: I decided to "disable" my Chrome. This uninstalled any updates and puts it back to factory defaults of chrome. I loaded chrome up again noticed the address bar was back on top. I downloaded the latest version from the play store and Chrome's address bar is still at the top. Now, I wonder why the address bar was at the bottom when I first set the phone up?

You can change this setting under chrome://flags, by enabling Chrome Home Promo and restarting the browser.

Thanks, but I don't have that one on my list of flags.

Interesting, a few months ago after a chrome update mine switched from top to bottom on my S7 but when I got my S9 it was back on top so I assumed there was another update that switched it back. Wondering if I was correct or not even close...

On some versions it's called "Chrome Home Android".
Try to see If you have this one and enable it.
