Google Chrome 26.0.1410.28 Beta Available for Download

Google has released Google Chrome 26.0.1410.28 to the Beta channel for Windows, Mac OS, Linux, and Chrome Frame platforms. This build contains a new beta version of Flash Player 11.6.602.177 that includes ActionScript Workers feature. This build also contains a number of bug fixes and improvements.

Overview
Google Chrome 26 Beta includes spell checking improvements with updated dictionaries and support for Korean, Tamil and Albanian. Additionally, you can sync custom dictionaries across devices now.

Google Chrome 26 Beta also adds support for grammar, homonym and context-sensitive spell checking in English, powered by the same technologies used by Google search. Support for additional languages is on the way.

Furthermore, Google Chrome 26 Beta version for Windows includes app launcher - a dedicated home for your apps which makes them easy to open outside the browser. This is the same experience as the app launcher on Chromebooks. You’ll need to install a Chrome packaged app in order to try out the Chrome app launcher. Chrome packaged apps deliver a native-like experience across multiple platforms with the security properties of a web page.
