It’s been in beta since the beginning of this year, but today it’s official – we’re releasing the Presently Chrome Extension as a full-fledged Presently client. We released the first version in January, and since then our developers have been adding functionality and making tweaks to bring full functionality to the extension – so Presently users can enjoy a seamless integration of their corporate collaboration app within their Chrome browser. Now you can do almost everything you do on the native web app! In this version 0.1 you can:
- Receive and post status updates instantly
- Like/Unlike updates
- Attach text
- URL Shortening
- Desktop Notifications
- View older updates with continuous scrolling
- Keyboard Shortcuts for added usability (Press shift+’?’ to get the whole list)
Download the extension now and see how easy it is to collaborate, communicate and stay connected in real-time with Presently Chrome, our newest addition to the family of Presently apps.
If you ever need to recover the Chrome extension (if it freezes upon coming back from a lost network connection, for example), follow these instructions:
- Right click the Presently icon in Chrome
- Click “Manage Extensions”
- Find Presently
- Click Disable and then Enable
