iPad Is chrome still bad on iOS 12

[gdourado]

Hello, how are you?

I saw some information online regarding how chrome browser on iOS was forced to use the safari rendering engine and worst version of JavaScript and how in iOS, safari is just a better performing browser.

But those documents where more than a year old.
So I am wondering if this is still the situation with the current version of iOS 12.

I have an android phone so I would like to use chrome on the iPad to have my tabs synced and all the search history and so on.

But if chrome on the iPad is crippled, might as well use safari for multiple tabs if the performance is better.

Cheers

I use only Chrome on my 10.5 iPP under 12.1.1 and don't have any issues with it. I also use it on my Windows & Android devices.

That a10x with 4 gigs of ram is a beast!
I am sure it can go through anything.
But I am still wondering if chrome still has to use a poor version of the safari rendering engine and of its javascript.
