"This new auto-revocation feature builds on a similar Android feature that already makes it easier for Chrome users to unsubscribe from website notifications they don't care about with a single tap. The feature doesn't revoke notifications for any web apps installed on the device, and permissions will only be disabled for sites that send a lot of notifications that users rarely engage with."
"Less than one percent of all web notifications in Chrome currently receive any interaction from users, according to Google, often making them more distracting than helpful. "We've already been testing this feature. Our test results show a significant reduction in notification overload with only a minimal change in total notification clicks," Google said in its announcement. "Our experiments also indicate that websites that send a lower volume of notifications are actually seeing an increase in clicks.""
Chrome introduces an auto-revocation feature for Android and desktop that disables notification permissions for sites that send many notifications with low user engagement. Permissions for web apps installed on devices remain unaffected. Notifications will be revoked only for sites whose messages users rarely interact with, aiming to reduce distraction. Users can turn the auto-revocation feature off or preserve specific site notifications by visiting the site or re-granting permissions through Safety Check. Test results reportedly show a significant reduction in notification overload with minimal change in total notification clicks, and lower-volume senders may see increased engagement.
