Sharepoint intranet - Default site
Hi has-dbk ,
How to set the Chrome home page globally - https://support.google.com/chrome/a/answer/187202?hl=en
You can add a "Frequent link" to the SharePoint start page but its below the fold of the page so no good in terms of using it the way into the Intranet from my experience.
The app icon good addition to the "hamburger" menu in the top left but you cannot deploy an app to the menu, each user has to find it and pin it which again doesnt work for a consistent navigation experience. I have deployed app icons and given instructions for users but the 20 odd intranet projects I have done have always set the default browser homepage.
Another future option is Home Sites which is on its way, its in development still but will provide what has been lacking in Office 365 for some time - https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/t5/Microsoft-SharePoint-Blog/SharePoint-home-sites-a-landing-for-your-organization-on-the/ba-p/621933

- HomeSites should be rolled out to all TR tenants by now I believe. Also if you have a a good DNS hosting provider you can easily have redirects. I just have Home.mydomain.com and intranet.mydomain.com redirect via dns redirect service that goes right to my page.
You can use spo-siteswap as well to move that site to your root if you do not use your root for anything else as well, or just a combination of these options.
