I'd have expected no less, since Chrome already protects the notification noise by default, too. You have to opt in to notifications. Sounds like a slightly different implementation for iOS, which is interesting in that they're assuming any app you add to Home Screen means your opting in to the notifications, or is there another opt-in? I see myself putting a few apps on my home screen that I want to click on often, but maybe not wanting the notifications to go with it?

I believe adding a site to your home screen isn't opting in to notifications, but opting in to allowing the site to request notifications, which would then require another opt-in.

> Chrome already protects the notification noise by default Does it though? I still get asked to opt-in for notifications on websites regularly, including those I've already said no to. A simple opt-in question still makes me answer the question routinely (with the default "Sites can ask to send notifications" setting). This puts a much higher bar on the notification opt-in game.

  I get asked, but once I say no, I haven't gotten prompted again. And if you accidentally click yes, it even has a section in the 'safety check' section that will have a list of sites sending you too many notifications. Also, there's another setting where you can toggle between: ask permission, block all; and some other silent blocking them.... I wonder if it remembers my settings better because I have a google account that my chrome is logged into for syncing these things?

A web app that has been added to the Home Screen can request permission to receive push notifications as long as that request is in response to direct user interaction -- such as tapping on a ‘subscribe’ button provided by the web app. iOS or iPadOS will prompt the user to give the web app permission to send notifications. The user can then manage those permissions per web app in Notifications Settings -- just like any other app on iPhone and iPad.
