Title: Chrome tests Mac OS X notification support, Windows 10 support “likely” Post by: HCK on April 10, 2016, 04:05:12 pm Chrome tests Mac OS X notification support, Windows 10 support “likely”
<article> <section class="page"> <p>Now that Google Chrome no longer has its own notification center (http://www.pcworld.com/article/2993484/browsers/google-dumps-chromes-notification-center-on-windows-linux-and-mac.html), the browser is testing support for native notifications in Mac OS X, and Windows 10 Action Center support could be coming, too.</p><p>Notification support would allow Mac users to get Chrome alerts in the same manner as most other OS X apps. Notifications will look the same as other apps, will appear within the OS X Notification Center, and should respect any Do Not Disturb settings that users have set up.</p><p>For now, the feature is experimental. As The Next Web reports (http://thenextweb.com/apps/2016/04/06/chrome-finally-getting-native-push-notifications-mac/), users can switch it on by visiting <a href="chrome://flags/#enable-native-notifications">chrome://flags/#enable-native-notifications[/url], selecting “Enabled,” and restarting the browser. This feature is available in the stable version of Chrome, but users can see it in a more current development state by using Chrome’s Canary development channel.</p><p class="jumpTag"><a href="/article/3053511/software/chrome-tests-mac-os-x-notification-support-windows-10-support-likely.html#jump">To read this article in full or to leave a comment, please click here[/url]</p></section></article> Source: Chrome tests Mac OS X notification support, Windows 10 support “likely” (http://www.macworld.com/article/3053511/software/chrome-tests-mac-os-x-notification-support-windows-10-support-likely.html#tk.rss_all) |
