Overview
- Chrome 150 will be the final version to support macOS 12, with Chrome 151 requiring macOS 13 Ventura or later and tentatively scheduled for July 28, 2026.
- Google says older Chrome builds will keep running on Monterey but will no longer receive new features or security patches after the cutoff.
- Google advises Monterey users to move to Ventura or newer to stay protected, noting that those unable to upgrade may need different browsers or new hardware.
- Many older Macs cannot install Ventura, including iMacs from before 2017, MacBook Air models before 2018, and MacBook Pro models from before 2017.
- The move follows Apple ending support for Monterey in mid-2024, and aligns with Chrome’s roughly four‑week release cadence projecting the change for mid‑summer 2026.
