The lock screen also displays the time and local weather and gives you easy access to media controls so you can pause or play a song. You will find your WiFi and battery status in the top right corner and the option to log out of your account. You enable the feature by digging into the Chrome OS settings menu and finding your way to the Personalization section. Once enabled, it will turn on when the operating system detects that your device has been inactive for some time.
The update also introduces a feature that allows you to use your pin or fingerprint, instead of a password, to log in to sites that support the WebAuthn standard. What is at hand here is that you can use your pin or fingerprint as a form of two-factor authentication on websites where you have enabled the extra security measure. Some platforms that support the WebAuthn standard include Dropbox and GitHub. You can expect Chrome OS 88 to roll out to your device within the next few days.
