Overview

  • The new capability is now live for Chrome Enterprise customers on iOS, extending managed browsing to personal Apple devices.
  • Users can toggle between personal and managed work Google accounts directly in Chrome for iOS without signing out.
  • Browsing data such as open tabs, history and saved passwords stays isolated within each active profile to protect corporate and personal information.
  • IT teams can enforce URL filtering on iOS and stream security event data into the Google Admin console or third-party SIEM tools.
  • An in-app onboarding screen explains how data is handled and issues notifications whenever users enter a managed browsing environment.
