Google has developed Gmail in order to be a reliable, robust and secure platform for all the management of email, contacts and all that this entails..

 

Gmail offers us the possibility of activating the notifications of new incoming messages in the main current browsers and this is ideal if due to work or time issues, we cannot be aware of new emails arriving in Gmail.

 

Today we will learn how to activate this type of notifications in browsers such as Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox or Safari..
