New Notifications Experience on Android

Image
New Notifications Experience on Android We're turning on an improved Google+ notifications experience on Android (with version 9.1.0). This new system will deliver Google+ notifications more reliably and includes some new features as well. For starters, you can not only mark all notifications as read but filter all your notifications by All, Unread, and Other Updates as well. (These filters are already available on the Google+ Web and iOS apps.) With this update we'll also hide application menus when you scroll through notifications to give you a full screen view of what's happening. Just scroll back up to reveal the menus again and/or tap the Notifications tab to quickly jump to the top of your notifications list. As always, please send us your ideas/issues using our Send Feedback menu item as that's the best way to ensure we'll see them. Thanks~

Google+ Web Updates Nov 17 Today we're starting to roll out two improvements to the Google+ notifications experience on the Web. In addition to being able to mark all notifications as read, you can now mark individual notifications as read too. We've also added thumbnails and icons to help you easily scan your notifications list and pick out which ones to act on. As always, please keep sending us your ideas/issues using the Send Feedback menu item. Thanks~

Please stay tuned & thanks for your patience!] I'm delighted to say that by very popular demand, Google+ has added several new ways to start posts & add photos: ● Drag photo(s) into any stream to which you can post in order to start a new post with the photos attached ● Drag photo(s) into a post box to attach them ● Drag photo(s) into the image picker (inside of a post box) to attach them ● Drag a photo (singular) onto a comment to attach it to the comment Give it a try & please let us know what you think. Thanks, J. PS—I started this message by dragging in the attached animation. #WeMustGoDeeper!
