Top most wanted feature from our feedback in PWA and some behavioral questions
andymengyizhu opened this issue · 4 comments
Our product has launched PWA to some of our customers.
The major feedback is that people want Badging.
In Mac, Badging is shown on icons in both task bar and launchpad.
However, in windows, the desktop icon is only shown in taskbar. Desktop shortcut doesn't show the badge.
In addition, when you close PWA in mac, it really exit PWA entirely so the badging will disappear which may confuses mac users because the expected behavior of closing a app on mac is only minimizing it.
The spec does not say badging must be displayed (where potentially applicable). You should file bugs for the implementors instead. ^^

Although I think #3 shares and adresses your last concern, notably:
I think it would always be an option for the user agent to clear the badge, with a note that they should only do it in extreme cases
I think the last concern is more broadly applicable to PWAs, it might be something Chrome should consider changing. Thanks for the feedback @andymengyizhu :)
