Why am I not getting notifications—or getting too many?

Updated over 3 weeks ago

Notifications help you stay connected, but sometimes they need a quick tweak. Here’s how to manage them on each platform:

📱 Android

→ Swipe down from the top of your screen to see the gear icon (top right)

→ Tap it → go to Notifications → App notifications

→ Find Pi, turn on Allow Notifications, then toggle on Sound & vibration and pick your preferred alert style

🍎 iOS

→ Open the Settings app → tap Notifications

→ Scroll down and select Pi

→ Turn on Allow Notifications, then adjust Banners, Sounds, Badges, and Lock Screen settings to your liking

💻 Web (Mac & Windows)

→ On Mac: Follow the iOS steps above—also check your browser settings to allow alerts

→ On Windows:

  • Open the Settings, the gear icon (bottom left)

  • Tap it → go to Notifications

  • Toggle on Reminders

Just a heads-up: Focus modes or battery savers might delay or silence alerts. If you’re still having issues, log a ticket (see how in the FAQ question How do I report a bug, share feedback, or get help with Pi?) —we’ve got your back! 💙
