ChromeOS gets a big update with Quick Insert, Focus mode, and new AI features

ChromeOS 130 is rolling out with Quick Insert, Focus Mode, Welcome Recap, and for Chromebook Plus, the new recorder app with AI, enhanced mic, and camera effects.

Starting today, Google’s ChromeOS 130 update with Quick Insert, Focus Mode, Welcome Recap, and other features is rolling out. Chromebook Plus models with NPU also get exclusive special features in 130, such as the new recorder app with AI, enhanced mic, camera effects, and Gemini AI tools like “help me read” summaries. There’s a long list of changes in 130, but here are some highlights.
