Google brings keyboard shortcuts and custom mouse buttons to ChromeOS


Chromebook hotspot tethering is also a thing now.

Google is rolling out a new ChromeOS update(M123) to its stable channel yesterday that brought features like the ability to customize keyboard shortcuts and mouse buttons and enabled hotspot connections on cellular Chromebooks. Google uses the examples of tweaking shortcuts to be easier to carry out one-handed or making them resemble those you’re used to in, say, macOS. The company also added per-app language preferences for Android apps that you’re running in ChromeOS, and it says it has made its offline text-to-speech voices more natural-sounding.
