Tired of running Google Chrome with arguments in terminal?
Install this "Chrome" app (and add to Dock if you want) and use instead of Google Chrome.
Google Chrome needs to be installed separately. This app doesn't change anything about Google Chrome, everything works the same (settings, updates, etc.), except Google Chrome is run with custom flags.
By default app use flag --disable-features=GlobalMediaControls
to disable annoying extension which controls running music, but you can modify flags any way you want. See: run.sh
curl -s https://raw.githubusercontent.com/feegloo/macos-chrome-custom/master/install | bash
Open "Chrome" app, then allow macOS to run app from "unidentified developer" in System Preferences / Security & Privacy / General
App contains only 3 files:
- run.sh shell script executed when app is run
- icon.icns app icon
- Info.plist app descriptor, containing mostly dummy info
App is installed at /Applications/Chrome.app/
, but you can rename Chrome
to any name.
Treat it like a template for macOS app which runs Shell script.
