can not deny that today we have a great bond with our phone and we totally elude him. For 24 hours the notification bar smokes with warnings of instant messaging apps, notifications of all social networks, application updates, calls, new emails, the Apalabrados informing us that it’s our turn , calendar reminders and so on, so can be very useful to receive these notifications on your PC monitor and so save having to plug the screen tens of times.
On other occasions we have spoken of different methods to control your Android from your computer and even my partner Adrian is in the process of achieving full remote control your phone while in the office, but today I will present a new application called Krome , that works very simply synchronizing each and every one of the notifications we receive in the smartphone with desktop Chrome browser.
operating it should:
- First Krome download the application from Google Play , it costs € 0.50 so not a big outlay for the utility it offers. also have to install the appropriate extension in the browser , we’ll find in the Chrome Web Store. Much eye , check that you have installed the latest version of Chrome, and marked the option to “ allow Chrome to run in the background “.
We
- , opening Krome first warn us that need access to the phone’s Accessibility Services to be able to read the notifications of the terminal, we give entering the corresponding settings menu and go. Then we returns an alphanumeric key we introduce Chrome extension and allow the application to be matched with the browser. That done, you’re all set.
Since then all notifications we receive in the device will appear in a small box on the lower right side of the computer screen, very similar to typical gnow cards. And when I say all notifications, means absolutely all alerts that can be displayed in the bar of the phone, both as applications of the system, therefore, we can disable those services that do not want to display on the PC from the App menu
The service works pretty well, notifications are not instantaneous but not usually take more than 5 to 10 seconds to appear . Besides that application in Android has a register, to check for skipped any. Unfortunately, at least for now can not interact with the notifications from PC, except in the case of SMS that we can answer them from the notice, but if we can also revoke that permission from the same settings.
This is how notifications are displayed on the computer:
If you care about privacy and the information from your notifications flies in the network, you have the option of define a key to encrypt the data you will have to enter both in the application and in the browser. Moreover, the same developer reported that the application uses a secure connection to transmit data using Google Cloud Messaging service and they saved on their servers only some data (such as application icons) that erased once you are notified.
Requires Android 4.0 and higher
Version: 1.8
Size: 606k
INSTALL
very useful supplement to be careful in any situation to the telephone prompts, though somewhat short in terms of functionality for now. It is still too new, but we will see how it evolves. What it does now, it does well, and it promises.
