Add all the stuffz here

Wanted to inquire why does this replace the main chrome installed and if I am wrong acted like chromium (blue color one that installed randomly on device) and not as standalone app like Opera or Vivaldi or Zen browser away from their original Chromium forks?

So, should I install this without any fear of getting this mixed with existing browsers?

Just generally asking.

At least on Windows, it will not replace the Chrome installation
