Google accelerates Chrome release cycle

Starting in September, Google is moving its Chrome browser to a two-week release cycle, instead of the current four-week cycle, or the six-week cycle that existed for the decade before that. > The web platform is constantly advancing, and our goal is to ensure developers and users have immediate access to the latest performance improvements, fixes and new capabilities. Building on our history of adapting our release process to match the demands of a modern web, Chrome is moving to a two-week release cycle. While releases will be more frequent, their smaller scope minimizes disruption and simplifies post-release debugging. And thanks to recent process enhancements, we are confident this shift will maintain our high standards for stability. The change applies to desktop, Android, and iOS, and begins with the stable release of Chrome 153 on September 8th. Beta releases will also move up to a two-week cycle. There are no changes to the Dev and Canary channels, and Extended Stable for enterprise admins and Chromium embedders will continue to adhere to an eight-week cycle.
