Just a quick heads-up: if you’re using Google Chrome on your iPhone and iPad, you should know that the app was updated today to add the previously reported data compression feature and translation tools.

Translate – When you come across a page written in a language that you don’t understand, just look for the translation bar. One tap and the page is easily translated for you.

Reduce Data Usage – Reduce your data usage by up to 50%. Enable this feature and view your savings: Settings > Bandwidth > Reduce Data Usage.

Google announced today that they will release an update for the Chrome web browser for iOS, bringing data compression functionality that can reduce data usage by up to 50%. The update will be rolling out “over the next few days” and it will also bring a translation bar that will automatically offer to translate pages into the user’s language ( similar to what Chrome offers on the desktop version ). We will let you know as soon as the update will be available for download. Stay tuned…

To start saving data and turn on an even more secure browsing experience, visit “Settings” > “Bandwidth management” > “Reduce data usage.” Then simply turn the toggle to “On.” From this menu, you’ll also be able to track how much bandwidth you save each month as you browse on Chrome.
