Google is currently working on fixing a known issue causing a Google Chrome web browser version launched earlier today for Apple processors to suddenly crash.
"Earlier today we updated our Chrome download page to include a new version of Chrome optimized for new macOS devices featuring an Apple processor," Chrome Support Manager Craig Tumblison said.
Google has already identified a fix for this issue and is currently working on releasing a fixed Google Chrome version that will work without crashing out of the blue.
Google began rolling out Chrome 87 earlier today, the first version specifically optimized to run on macOS devices with Apple M1 chips.
In all, Chrome 87 fixes 33 security vulnerabilities, with Google restricting bug details until the vast majority of users are updated.
