Overview
- Chrome for Android and desktop will turn off notifications from websites with very low engagement that send high volumes of alerts.
- The capability is integrated into Safety Check, extending its role beyond cleaning up unused camera and location permissions.
- Users will see an alert when Chrome unsubscribes a site and can restore permissions via Settings > Safety Check or by revisiting the site.
- Installed Progressive Web Apps are exempt from auto-revocation, and a global opt-out is available.
- Google reports testing showed a significant drop in noisy alerts, with under 1% of notifications receiving any interaction and lower-volume senders seeing higher click rates.
