The latest version of Chrome’s Canary build has added support for the Touch Bar for Apple’s 2016 MacBook Pro lineup featuring a Touch Bar. Up until now, Safari was the only browser on Mac that supported the Touch Bar which used the secondary OLED display for previewing and quickly switching between tabs.

On the latest version of Chrome’s Canary build (v58.0.3020), the Touch Bar shows handy shortcuts like a search bar, forward/back buttons, refresh button, and buttons for opening a new tab or adding a bookmark.

While the Touch Bar can be used for controlling video playback in Safari, Chrome’s latest Canary build offers no such option.

With Touch Bar support being added to Chrome’s Canary build, the feature will eventually make it to the final regular version of Chrome 58 as well, which is currently scheduled to release in the final week of April. Until then, we should see the Chrome team further refine this feature and perhaps make better use of the Touch Bar.
