Feature Friday - May 2: Chrome Extension Enhancements and more

Chrome Extension Gets Search — Faster Feedback, Less Friction

Capturing feedback is easy. But organizing and acting on it? That’s been harder than it should be - especially inside our Chrome Extension. Without search, scrolling through long lists of Ideas, Roadmap items, or Announcements was slowing teams down.

We’ve added search functionality to the LaunchNotes Chrome Extension so you can:

• Instantly locate and attach feedback to specific Ideas, Roadmap items, and Announcements

• Speed-up feedback linking

• ✅ Stay organized without endless scrolling

Now it’s easier than ever for your team to provide feedback and connect those insights to the right work. Install and manage your the LaunchNotes Chrome Extension for Feedback from the Settings drop or directly from the Chrome Web Store.

Sneak Peeks: Coming Soon

🎯 Cohorts for Announcements

Product communications teams often want to confidently notify a specific group of subscribers - internal users, enterprise customers, beta testers - without relying on category preferences. Cohorts changes that!

With Cohorts, you will be able to:

• Define custom subscriber groups by email or domain

• Send announcements directly to those groups - even if they’re not subscribed to the announcement’s category

• Bypass category filters to ensure high-priority updates reach the right people

Will be available on Premium & Enterprise plans.

📌 Pinned Announcements

Highlight up to five important updates at the top of your LaunchNotes page - product launches, critical fixes, feature enhancements. Ensure they stay visible and drive engagement from the moment users land on your Product Updates page.

Will be available on Premium & Enterprise plans.

🧩 v2 Widget Enhancements

A more powerful, flexible v2 widget is on the way. Key enhancements include:

• 🎨 Customization: Control color, fonts, and custom CSS

• 🧱 Multiple Instances: Use different widgets for different pages or teams

• 📊 Analytics: The ability to see who’s viewing widget content (vs anonymous)

Will be available on all LaunchNotes plans.
