I found another one that works and shows offline time as well, but has no notifications and you can only view one contact at a time: https://gist.github.com/rkhayyat/0f93f9f51ae40d6df3daf123182ee27b

not showing typing.

Hallo,

is with this function the user asked to change permission in his app with a message?
or what does this mean?

//Modified Code from Notifiaction API example from MDN
function checkPermission() {
// Let's check if the browser supports notifications
if (!("Notification"in window)) {
return flase;
}// Let's check whether notification permissions have already been granted
else if (Notification.permission === "granted") {
// If it's okay let's create a notification
return true;
}// Otherwise, we need to ask the user for permission
else if (Notification.permission !== 'denied') {
Notification.requestPermission(function(permission) {
// If the user accepts, let's create a notification
if (permission === "granted") {
return true;

@meins-rbg that's right, it is to check if the browser supports notifications API and check/ask permission to allow notifications.

Thanks, is there a solution for only "registers the first one" without changing the language?
