SmartBuy Progressive Web Application (PWA)

FAQ

These icons are part of the new enhancement which is in place for the SmartBuy site which would help provide better user experience in terms of notifications. This has been implemented using the PWA approach.

PWA means Progressive Web Application by which users will have the option to save the shortcut/icon/app on their desktops (in case of Windows) or within the browsers as an app (in case of Mac) which would help them to open the SmartBuy portal as an application with push notifications enabled as well as being able to manage preferences for these notifications for better user experience.
