Would love to have this on my iPhone lock screen with intelliscreen.

We would love to be on your iPhone's lock screen. That would mean a different type of app for us though, with a server and all.

Always the simple products that come through.

Quick question: I'm logged into multiple Gmail accounts - will it grab from both, or just the active account?

Currently, just the active one. We're definitely working on multiple gmail accounts, so hold tight!

Heaven forbid we have to actually _use_ a server.

Just launched 5 days ago! Over 100k notifications served. We're completely client side, so there are no privacy concerns.

Congrats!

If it's completely client side, how do you count the notifications? I guess something needs to be sent home, right?

Thanks! If you mean for analytics, then we're just using Google Analytics to count notifications served.

Great work. Really love the well refined interface.

Not that I care about it much, but as a feedback, I am not able to get LinkedIn to work.

Thanks! Can you send us an email at support@chimeapp.com describing the issue that you're having. Are you logged-in to LinkedIn?

This looks really cool, but one thing I'd love to see/know before I install.

Do you send me a notification whenever something happens, or can you pool them together and only interrupt me every few hours? Hint: I want the latter.

Why Chrome only? This looks like something that could work just as well on Firefox
