Apple is testing the use of iOS-style notifications on iCloud.com, according to a new report. Citing a reader tip that was subsequently confirmed by other staff members, TUAW reports that the notifications appear in the middle of the screen, and currently use placeholder text, stating “Default Title for English” and “English - This is test message description”. Apple has not made any announcement of web-based iCloud notifications, and would likely need to integrate more functionality into the website to make the notifications truly useful, as Mail and Calendar are the only current web-based applications that could fully take advantage of such a system.
