How to create an all in one message center with Epichrome

Most of us use at least a few messaging applications. The more you use, the more applications you will have to open and updates on those applications. Not only is it much to manipulate, this also consumes a lot of computer resources.

One solution to this problem is to bring it all to a single center. There are several such applications on the market, but most are slow, with little or no updates. But there is an option that makes it easy to create a message center that contains all the apps you want, thanks to Chrome SSB (site-specific-browser, help translate as a website). .

Why use Chrome SSB?

As its name suggests, SSB allows users to run the site as a standalone desktop application on the browser. This application can be set up according to user needs. If you use a Mac, you have stheer to try Fluid-based Safari or Epichrome based Chrome browser. By using multiple web versions of messaging applications, you can bring them all 'home'. Here are suggestions for using Epichrome.

If the SSB is just a browser, we will ask 'why not use a normal browser'. Any user can open a new tab and access any web chat application. But if you do that, it will be just like a tab that you can turn off at any time, won't get the convenience of opening the chat application all the time, even if the browser session is closed.

Using Epichrome means that there are many browser extensions that you can add to increase the experience of using the application without affecting the main browser.

Set up the message center

After setting up SSB with Epichrome, you will create a message center by adding multiple website addresses to the settings. Select Add tab, users can add many messaging applications they use. If you don't know their web address, ask Google Search or search the app's home page.
