TL; DR
- In Samsung Internet Browser Beta, you can now move the URL bar to the bottom of the screen.
- This comes months after Safari introduced the same feature in the iOS 15 beta.
- However, Apple is not the first to adopt this option.
NS Samsung Internet Browser has a lot of fans because of its many neat features and integration with Samsung’s unique features. The beta version of the app now has handy new features that appear to be inspired by competing platforms.
Apple Insider And Sam Mobile The latest beta version of Samsung Internet Browser has reported that users can now move the URL bar to the bottom of the screen. Older outlets mention that it draws Safari features to the iOS 15 beta.
However, moving the phone browser’s URL bar to the bottom of the screen is nothing new. Windows Phone 8 and later had this feature. Before Apple and Samsung adopted it, Google also tested it on mobile versions of Chrome.

Again, the timing of Samsung’s decision is interesting. It turns out that this feature was actually inspired by Apple, rather than having adopted the feature first. However, these changes make sense given the fact that phone screens are bigger than ever.
Samsung Internet Browser Chrome and Safari also include tab groups, which allow you to organize and name your tabs into groups. So either way, Samsung browser fans are getting a welcome addition.
