Unlock 20+ Hidden Google Chrome Themes

Look, it's not a hidden fact that Google Chrome comes with a multitude of themes chosen by different developers and users. And they could easily be accessed by going to Settings > Appearance > Themes. You'll find 14 themes created by Chrome developers and many others by third-party vendors. However, many users seem to ignore the fact that the Chrome browser itself contains more than 20 themes, even if they are hidden for normal users. These could be unlocked by allowing the chrome flags.

Flags are experimental features that can be unstable for general users. From the Canary version, these thematic flags made a long journey covering the developer, the beta and finally the Stable version of Chrome. Although I have not experienced any stability issues, the experiences may vary from user to user. If you experience stability issues, simply turn off these indicators. Also, do not forget that these themes are only available for the desktop version of Chrome and not for Android or iOS. With that in mind, let's see how to unlock these 20+ Google Chrome themes.

Unlock hidden themes from Google Chrome

Before you start, make sure to use the software Chrome stable version 77. Now open a new tab in the Chrome browser and enter the following links one by one in your browser. Enter the first URL and, in the drop-down list, set the Default option to Enable. Do this for the other two too.

chrome://flags/#chrome-colors

chrome://flags/#chrome-colors-custom-color-picker

chrome://flags/#ntp-customization-menu-v2

Once all three indicators have been enabled, you will need to restart your browser. Press the Now restart options at the bottom. If the option does not exist, you may need to restart the browser manually. Once done, open a new tab and press the button Personalize option present at the bottom right. Select the Color and theme option and chose one of the 23 new dynamic themes. When you have made the selection, press Done to have the changes reflected. Congratulations! You have now successfully unlocked the various hidden Google Chrome.

Customizations of hidden shortcuts

Although you have activated the ntp-v2-customization menu Turning on the flag to unlock hidden Google Chrome themes might have unlocked another feature. Under personalization, select the Shortcut tongue. In this section, Google has added two new methods of customizing your shortcut. You can either select the first option and display the shortcuts you have chosen (the current default view) or let Google create shortcuts for you based on the sites you visit most often frequently (the second option). However, if you want to hide all the shortcuts on the page, just switch to Hide shortcuts switch.
