Google is making a change to Chrome Sync that will affect users who haven't updated their browser in a while. Starting in early 2025, Chrome Sync will stop working on versions of Chrome that are more than four years old.

Chrome Sync is one of the best features of Google’s world-dominating web browser. The ability to switch between devices and maintain the same bookmarks, passwords, tabs, etc. is a godsend. Not to mention newer features like moving tabs between mobile and desktop.

A new policy for Chrome Sync will see Google disable the functionality if you haven't updated your browser recently enough.
