Microsoft Edge and Live Title
- Thanks for the feedback! We are constantly working to make PWAs feel just like any other app on Windows. We've taken note of this request as one of the remaining gaps in that space.
Hi,
I like the idea of PWAs, or sites installed as app in Edge, having live tiles in Windows 10 Start menu, like show notifications and things like that, would be very useful.
also for clarification,
Live tiles are available in Windows 10 too, it wasn't only restricted to Metro interface.
PWAs, progressive web apps or websites that users install as an app in Edge browser, are not extensions, they're apps and can be found here: edge://apps/
and extensions are here: edge://extensions/
There is a suggestion for Microsoft Launcher to get similar theme, feel free to upvote it

HotCakeX Yes, yes, app in Edge browser in edge://apps/
It is a suggestion that Microsoft Edge has a live tile to be updated through the notifications (edge://settings/content/notifications)
I wish this thing was in Windows 10. I.e. the browser is not limited to a static icon
A similar solution for Android have made live titles the developers of Launcher 10. To which I gave a link above.
Of course, I am not a programmer, there may be a more elegant solution.
