Meanwhile, Google has begun rolling out an updated UI for Google Drive, Docs, Sheets, and Slides.

Google is reportedly working on a feature for Chrome to alert users about memory consumed by each tab. The function was spotted by Chrome expert Leopeva64 on Twitter, according to a report by Android Police. 

The feature could be helpful when users open multiple tabs to know specific memory usage for every open tab when they place the cursor on it. The tech giant recently launched memory and energy saver modes for Chrome on Mac, Windows, Linux, and Chromebooks. Memory saver will automatically free up memory from inactive tabs.
