Chrome on Android is about to tame those annoying notification prompts

TL;DR Chrome 155 will feature redesigned notification prompts on Android. The prompts will be less intrusive and will automatically disappear if ignored. A new “Notifications” option will also be added to Chrome’s site controls UI.

Google has been hard at work improving the user experience of Chrome on Android. The company recently added new features, including a redesigned navigation bar . Now, it’s working on a change that will make pretty much every internet user breathe a sigh of relief.

In a post on the Chrome for Developers blog, the company announced that it’s making some changes to how the browser displays notification prompts on Android (via PiunikaWeb ). Right now, if a website wants your permission to show notifications, the prompt basically hijacks your screen until you allow or block it.
