Disruption Posted November 20, 2023 Share Posted November 20, 2023 Hey there! No one is getting notifications on iOS even though I followed the Manifest items. What happened? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marc Stridgen Posted November 21, 2023 Share Posted November 21, 2023 Have these people switched on the notifications in their account settings? Also, have they added the site on their device? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is there not an easy way for a prompt to pop up for them to enable notifications? Chris59 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can’t get the push notification from just browsing the website in Safari. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have it on my home page, but there is no notifications that are being generated when someone quotes me, DMs me, etc. I have no capability to make sure that happens on my device.

After the PWA was installed, open the notification settings (bell symbol → notification settings). At the end, there is a setting for Push notifications to be turned on. It’s not on by default. After this option became available, I made a forum post in my communities to explain it to users.

Example No dice on my end. I have the PWA installed and I still do not see a push option. Realistically, is there anyway to set this enabled by default?

You would need to enable it in the PWA as there is an explicit optin and negotiation to register the device for push notifications with your OS provider. You would open the PWA, login, and go to Account Settings -> Notification Settings -> Scroll to the bottom and enable it as seen here: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
