How do you hide the Address bar in Google Chrome for Chrome Apps?

Solution 1:

You can run Chrome in application mode.

Windows:

Chrome.exe --app=https://google.com

Mac:

/Applications/Google\ Chrome.app/Contents/MacOS/Google\ Chrome --app=https://google.com

Linux:

google-chrome --app=https://google.com

This removes all toolbars, not just the address bar, but it will definitely increase your real estate without having to use Kiosk mode.

Solution 2:

Visit the site you want in Chrome. Click the Chrome menu in your browser toolbar.

• Select "More Tools" > "Create shortcut…"
• Check "Open as window", press "Add"

Once you launch from that shortcut it will be a window without toolbar.

Solution 3:

Mac

• CMDControlF goes fullscreen
• CMDShiftF hides the navbar
• also worth noting ... → More Tools → Create Shortcut... creates a standalone Application, just make sure you're logged into the Chrome Profile you want to be active

Windows

• F11 (possibly AltEnter too)
