Google Announces Native RSS Support Coming to Chrome Browser
(Google Chrome will support “RSS”)
Google confirmed today its Chrome browser will soon add built-in RSS feed support. This change addresses a long-standing user request. Chrome currently lacks direct RSS reading tools. Many users rely on clunky workarounds or separate apps. Native integration promises a smoother experience.
RSS stands for Really Simple Syndication. It lets users subscribe to website updates. Users get new content automatically. This is common for news sites and blogs. Users see headlines and summaries in one place. They click to read full articles.
Adding RSS directly into Chrome simplifies this process. Users will manage subscriptions easily within the browser. They won’t need extra extensions or third-party apps. Google aims to integrate this feature seamlessly. The exact look is still under development.
The move follows Google’s efforts to make Chrome a central hub. Integrating RSS feeds aligns with this goal. Users spend more time within the browser. Google keeps them engaged with its services. Other browsers like Firefox and Safari already offer RSS tools. Chrome catching up removes a notable gap.
A Google spokesperson officially confirmed the development. The feature is actively being worked on. It targets a future Chrome release. An exact launch date remains unannounced. Testing will happen first. Google wants to ensure reliability.

The feature revives interest in the older RSS standard.
