We're considering dropping the manifest requirement for Mobile Web Installability as well, if the user experiences proves to be good enough, which would allow users to install any website they like! 🙂

What percentage of sessions and pageviews for "Android WebView" do you see in your Analytics? Is that number meaningful enough for you/your business to care where that traffic is coming from? Reply to the thread with numbers and thoughts (or DM).

Thread on what the Web community is building to handle the crisis caused by COVID-19. Know of a web app built to help tackle problems caused by it. An informational site, a game to entertain, or a tool to help cope with social distancing, etc? Reply with what you’ve seen.
Click to Call, making tel: links useful on desktop 📞
Many more cross-device features are in the works, with shared clipboard already available through chrome://flags. Got more ideas or use-cases?
From 🖥 to 📱 in a snap. When you see a phone number on your computer, simply right-click and send it to your @Android to place the call — just make sure you’re signed in and syncing on both devices.
This, and new Origin Trials for Notification Triggers and support for addresses & photos in the Contact Picker. Chrome 80 will be a good release! :)

AirHorner, the infamous air horning PWA, made it's way to the physical world. If you listen really carefully (and maybe are in the midst of a build) it even buzzes when pressed. @Paul_Kinlan
Working on a PWA that's installable on Android and still seeing white circles behind your icon? Be sure to read @Not_Woods' amazing article on Adaptive Icons! css-tricks.com/maskable-icon…

Excited to share a tech blog I wrote about how we try to be respectful of your notification space and emulate notif grouping for web push notifications on the new x.com.
I think it's pretty cool and had fun making it, hope you enjoy!
