Cannot load the Google Chat progressive web app on Chromium based browsers any more (gmail integration works fine)
Posted by jpluimers on 2026/03/20
Since a few days, oo my desktop systems, Chromium based browsers cannot completely load the Google Chat progressive web app any more.
Symptoms:
- Google Chat Android app works fine from my mobile devices
- This link works fine on my desktop in Chromium based browsers: mail.google.com/mail/u/0/#chat/home
- This link fails to fully load on my desktop in Chromium based browsers: chat.google.com/u/0/app?wr=1
The failure is that the green progress bar under the Google Workspace logo quickly almost fills up to become fully green, but then stalls without any network activity.
What I tried but does not fix:

Windows: Will the new Google Chat PWA for Chrome ever have system tray support? : gsuite
Posted by jpluimers on 2024/11/11
About 2 years after Google switched every Google Hangouts user over to Google Chat, I still wonder about [Wayback/Archive] Will the new Google Chat PWA for Chrome ever have system tray support? : gsuite:
Chrome _right now_ can be sustained as a background process with the Chrome-ball in the system tray. This is the vehicle with which Hangouts remains open at all time, so why not Chat, too?
I’m left with no option but to have Chat running on a mobile device so I have always on access. Perhaps this is the angle. I nunno.
Your support page link I’ve seen already and it doesn’t answer the Why question.
It is absolutely a bizzarotown implementation.
