Have you ever used Google Chrome on your iOS devices to listen to music on YouTube, only to find it stops playing when you close the app?

Thanks to the app’s latest update, you can prevent that from happening.

Other than miscellaneous bug fixes and performance improvements, there's not much else to this update. Still, it's nice to see Google working to better...

An update to Chrome for iOS adds the ability to share pages directly to Facebook, Google+, and Twitter in addition to email. In comparison, iOS’s native Safari browser already lets you tweet a link to the page you’re viewing with Twitter, but Google+ sharing isn’t available, and Facebook integration won’t be coming until iOS 6 is released, presumably sometime around Apple’s rumored iPhone event next month. The new Share menu (pictured below) replaces the Email item in Chrome’s drop-down menu...

While Chrome for iOS may not be much more than a skin on top of Mobile Safari, that doesn't seem to have put off the denizens of the App Store — they've sent Google's browser to the number 1 position in the free app charts.
