Google Chrome
Is Google Chrome free? Actually Free.
Pricing: Chrome's core browser remains free; optional in-app purchases shown by Apple are Google storage/AI service upgrades rather than requirements for browsing. Optional paid features: Google One 100 GB ($1.99); Google One 200 GB ($2.99); Google AI Plus (2 TB) ($9.99).
Browsing, search, tab management, password saving, translation, and device sync are available without paying. The complaints here are about design choices and tab handling, not a paid tier getting in the way.
- Reviewers praise Chrome's speed and reliability.
- Basic web browsing and search are fully usable without payment.
- Users like Chrome as an alternative to Safari.
- The placement of the “Close Other Tabs” command can make it too easy to wipe out saved tabs by accident.
- Some reviewers dislike Chrome's privacy-related behavior and private-browsing experience.
- Recent reviews include vague reports of the app not working correctly.
