Google Chrome will take some of the features from Microsoft Edge

In Google Chrome browser will appear sidebar search and master password functions. Previously, they first appeared in the Microsoft Edge browser. New features can already be tested in some versions of Google Chrome.

Thanks to the sidebar search function, you can immediately make a search without leaving the page, which will be displayed on the right side of the browser. To do this, just select a word or sentence on the page, and the results, images, videos and links will be displayed in the sidebar. Microsoft Edge introduced this feature in January 2021.

Chrome will also have a similar feature to Edge called “sign in with device password”. This password will become the master password for all passwords in Google Chrome if the password autofill feature is enabled. After that, Google will only ask for a master password to authorize on sites using the credentials saved in the browser. The new feature is already available in an early build of the Chrome Canary browser.
