Google is introducing five new updates to the Chrome address bar to make it easier to search the web, the tech giant announced on Wednesday. The changes include smarter autocompletion, automatic typo corrections, searches within bookmark folders, suggestions for popular sites and an improved visual layout.

The Chrome address bar will now autocomplete URLs based on words you have used in the past to search for a website. Previously, the address bar would only autocomplete URLS if you starting typing them from the beginning. For instance, if you wanted to navigate to Google Flights, you had to start typing out Google.com. Now, you can type simply type “flights,” after which the address bar will autocomplete it to “ https://www.google.com/travel/flights.”
