ChromeOS 116 is rolling out (9to5google.com)

Some of the new features are:

  • Files app now seems to work across local files and those on Google Drive
  • Search filters (local or everywhere, time, & and type)
  • "Enhanced autocorrect"
  • OCR for PDFs (wasn't able to get working - unsure why)
  • RGB Keyboard Backlight Control
  • Updates to the setup wizard

Seems like the only one I would use is the OCR one but I haven't been able to get it working. Maybe it's an accessibility option?

Yawn.

Still waiting for a true air drop equivalent.

Fingerprint sensors need to be standard.

1080p front facing cameras need to be standard.

Still can't make phone calls via phone through the Chromebook.

Foldables? Will Android merge with Chromeos or stay on Android?

Password changes on the web need to be synced with the Chromebook instantly. This bug has existed forever.

What app or service is google using now to facilitate video calling? Confusion between Android / ChromeOS
