New browser version 89.0
« on: March 10, 2021, 05:53:50 PM »
Hello everyone,

We’re pleased to announce that we have released a new beta version of Avast Secure Browser (ASB) for Windows - version  89.0.

Changes
  • Many accessibility improvements: it’s incredibly important to ensure that our browser can be used by everyone and anyone. 
  • NEW Made it easier to find the setting to turn on the full URL option. It can be found in the settings menu, before it was more hidden and required you to right click the omnibox.
  • NEW Extensions are now easily accessible in the main 3-dots menu on the top right side of the browser - before extensions were only accessible under the “More Tools”.


Fixes
  • Improved the overall stability of the Browser
  • Improved speed and stability of Avast Sync
  • Other Chromium 89 fixes
  • Minor design improvements and fixes
  • Fix of displaying the Browser after PC restart
  • Fix of playing video on Facebook feed

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
How to get this latest version
If you have ASB already installed, it should be updated automatically (feel free to visit ‘secure://settings/help’ to trigger an update faster)
Alternatively, you can download and install ASB from our official site:
https://beta-download.avastbrowser.com/external/avast_secure_browser_setup.exe

>> More info about Beta channel is here

We hope you enjoy the changes we have made, and as always we would love to hear your feedback. Please try our Browser also on your other devices. Next to Windows version, it is available on iOS, Android and MacOS platform and with new Avast sync, you can synchronize the settings on all of them. You can download the MacOS version here, more information for iOS see here (English locales only), and for Android here or go straight to the App Store or Google Play Store
