Google has updated search interface for its Chrome Web Store, adding filter options to the top of the page. The latest update is said to be part of Google's continuous efforts to improve the search functionality on the Chrome store. Last year, Google had social recommendations from Google+ in the Chrome Store. The feature allowed users to browse through apps that members of their circles had added +1 ratings.

The new filters are – All, Apps, Extensions and Themes. The update is likely to make searching for particular type of results easier on the Chrome store. Today’s update isn’t particularly ground-breaking, but it should make searching for specific types of results quicker. As the store’s offerings continue to grow at a rapid clip, that’s a welcome improvement.
