Android users Can Now Move the Address Bar In Chrome to the Bottom, Finally!
Big thumbs, rejoice! Google is finally rolling out a feature for Chrome on Android that lets you move the address bar to the bottom of the screen, where it always should’ve been.
Easier Browsing for Big Phones & Small Hands
This feature, already available on Chrome for iOS since 2023, makes browsing on larger Android phones much more comfortable. No more stretching your thumb like it’s doing yoga.
As Google’s Nick Kim Sexton puts it:
“Depending on the size of your hand and your device, one address bar position may feel more comfortable than the other.”
Flexibility is the name of the game. Now, Android users can choose what works best—top or bottom.

How to Move the Chrome Address Bar on Android
You can switch the address bar’s position in two simple ways:
- Long-press on the address bar and choose “Move to bottom” (or “Move to top”)
- Or head to Chrome Settings > Address Bar and pick your preference
Simple, fast, and finally something that feels made for one-handed browsing.
Final Thoughts
It’s a small change, but one that makes a huge difference. If you’ve got a plus-sized phone or just prefer more ergonomic browsing, this is the Chrome tweak you didn’t know you were waiting for.
