Here’s how Google fixed Chrome’s most frustrating Android performance issue

Credit: Edgar Cervantes / Android Authority TL;DR Google cut janky scrolling on Chrome for Android nearly in half between 2023 and 2026 by improving frame delivery consistency. Features like “Input Vizard” bypass Chrome’s busy main browser thread, sending touch input straight to the GPU compositor thread. New features like “Input prediction” and “Direct2Thread” ensure smooth rendering even if the OS lags in delivering touch data.
