Wanted: Beta tester for NPN Android App

I’ve just re-installed the app but I’m also not seeing seeing a notifications button at the bottom of the page. There is one in Settings > Account > Notifications but it doesn’t appear to do anything and it says “Notifications are not supported on this browser. Sorry” right above it.

Hey guys, it turns out we may not need an app for android after all because notifications work natively without the need for an app.

Could you all please try this instead:

  1. Open NPN in your web browser
  2. There should be a bar asking you to enable notifications, turn these notifications on.
  3. If this bar does not display go to your Notification Settings and look for ‘Live Notifications’, enable this.
  4. Add the site to your home screen

This works the same as an app would, you will receive notifications which is the only real benefit of the app.

That makes sense David. I have set up both my tablet and phone to accept notifications through the browser. I will let you know how it works once I get some notifications.

Excellent, here’s a reply to help testing it out :slight_smile:

Worked perfect on both devices. Thanks David!
