Google Chrome is one of the most popular browsers for desktop and smartphones. With most smartphone users having a Google account, the Chrome browser also brings tonnes of personalisation features. Some of them you must have already been using. Today, we take a look at some of the interesting customisations you can do on your browser – how to customise your homepage and startup page on Google Chrome browser. 

Before we hold forth, you need to understand the difference between a startup page and a home page on Google's Chrome browser. The Google Chrome startup page is the one that opens when you first launch Chrome on your device. Google Chrome Homepage is the page that opens when you click on the Home button. By the way, you can also choose to keep the two same.

Step 1: Open the Chrome browser on your desktop.

Step 2: Click on the three dots menu to enter Settings.

Step 3: Go to “Appearance” to enable the Home button.

Step 4: Under the “Show Home button”, select the New Tab page or a custom page. Exit to save the changes.
