Why am I not getting push notifications?

Push needs three things: notifications enabled in VERGR settings, permission granted to the app or browser, and a platform that supports web push. The Android app and installed PWA work well; on iPhone you must add VERGR to your home screen first — Safari tabs cannot receive push.

If your in-app notifications work but nothing reaches your device when the app is closed, it is almost always a permission or platform issue.

Checklist

• Notifications are on in Settings → Notifications, and the category is enabled.
• You granted notification permission when prompted (check your device/browser settings if you denied it).
• You are on a platform that supports push: the Android app, an installed PWA, or a desktop browser.
• On iPhone/iPad: VERGR must be added to your home screen (iOS 16.4+). Push does not work in a normal Safari tab.

Still nothing?

Re-open the app once after granting permission so it can register for push, and make sure your device is not in a battery-saver mode that blocks background alerts.
