Try it now by pressing the Everything Button ( or ) and typing “weather” into the search bar.
Get notified with app badges
Check which of your apps need your attention with a glance. If you see a small circular badge on an app icon, this indicates that the app has active notifications available or something new for you to view. You can turn these badges off by visiting your Quick Settings and clicking “Notifications”.
Troubleshooting at your fingertips
Easily troubleshoot your Chromebook with the new Diagnostics app. You can check the status of your laptop’s battery, CPU and memory, and run tests. So if you notice your battery is draining faster than expected, you can check its health right from the app. Open it now by pressing the Everything Button ( or ) and searching “Diagnostics”.
Better video calling
With the new Google Meet app you’ll get improved performance and easy-to-access features, like video backgrounds, that make meetings more inclusive and fun. Google Meet is also now pre-installed on all new Chromebooks, so it’s easy to search for the app by pressing the Everything Button or key.
Add an emoji with the new picker
It’s even easier to express yourself with emoji on Chromebooks. The new keyboard shortcut (Everything Button or key + Shift + Space) brings up a compact emoji picker. You’ll be able to see your recently used emoji, search and scroll for others. With a click, insert the perfect emoji into a conversation, document, or any text field on your Chromebook.
More files at your fingertips
You might already use Tote for quick access to your recent downloads, screen captures, or any files you’ve pinned. Now completed scans from the Files App and reports from the Diagnostics App will also show up in Tote. So once you save a scanned document it will be easier to find, right from your Chromebook shelf.
Personalize your desktop
Personalize your desktop with new wallpapers designed by Aurelia Durand, Sabrena Khadija, and Meech Boakye, inspired by the concept of togetherness. Try them now by right-clicking your desktop, choosing “Set wallpaper,” then “Togetherness.”
