Facebook already has notifications through the Chrome browser
Users of the Android platform know well that one of the applications that spends the most resources from your terminal is the social network Facebook And it is activated every so often to update the section New News, collecting all kinds of publications and loading videos Something that makes not only the battery consume faster, but may incur extra charges on user feeThat is why many only connect through the web version, through the Internet browserA version that is almost as complete as the application. Especially now that you've joined forces with Google to enjoy notifications through your browserGoogle Chrome
In this way, the mobile version of Facebook is now more complete, blurring the border with its application. And it is that users who log in to m.facebook.com in the browser Google Chrome , you may also receive alerts about a new comment or Like on one of your posts, a hashtag that mentions you, or any other issue that may require your attention. Something that until now was impossible, and that further enhances the Google browser to carry out services that only applications could.
Now, Facebook has worked hard to create an application that is efficient and useful, even if it is not everyone's cup of tea. However, this improvement in its web version makes sense for users with slow Internet connections , or in emerging markets where downloading apps and updates is a premium. And it is that Internet access continues to be limited and expensive for users with fewer resources, who do use the social network Facebook, but through its web version.
This way they can enjoy all their main services, now with notifications included, without the need for an abusive application with their resources. Or without having to download the application Facebook Lite, which seeks maximum efficiency with only 1 MB download One more resource to ensure that users who consult Facebook on the web via mobile end up coming back to check their notifications. A good way to keep them connected.
All of this is possible thanks to a new standard that Google has included in its Internet browser Chrome With it, it allows other services enjoy push notifications that notify the user at the moment they occur, despite being outside the browser. Something that had already premiered since last month with the news of Vice News or the online store eBayNow Facebook takes advantage of it, achieving lower data consumption and without requiring downloads of applications for the user.
All you have to do is use Facebook through your browser Chrome , in its mobile web version: m.facebook.com All this as usual, although giving permission for the use of notifications, knowing that now you will also be notified of any novelty through a sound and notification. Of course, now Facebook and its mobile web users must deal with the problem of repeated notifications if they also use Facebookon the computer or through the official application.
