Push notifications

Push notifications are the KretaOS bell, delivered to your device. When something lands in your bell — a client replied, a promise is coming due, a teammate handed you a client — your phone or computer can ring too, even when KretaOS is closed.

Turn notifications on

Notifications are off until you turn them on, and you turn them on separately on each device.

1. On the device you want to ring, go to Settings.
2. Open Intelligent alerts.
3. Switch on Notifications on this device.
4. Allow notifications when your phone or browser asks.
5. Tap Send a test. You should see "Sent — check this device." and a test notification.

Where it works

• The KretaOS app on Android.
• Chrome, Edge and Firefox on a computer.
• iPhone in Safari: add KretaOS to your Home Screen first (Share › Add to Home Screen), open it from there, then turn notifications on.

If your device cannot receive notifications, the switch tells you why — for example, "Notifications are blocked for this site in your browser settings — allow them there, then turn this on."

What a notification shows

A lock screen can be read by anyone nearby, so a notification shows a short title only — for example, that a client replied — and never the client's own words. A few messages that KretaOS wrote itself, such as a note that your Google connection needs attention, show a line of detail too.

Tap a notification to open the right page in KretaOS.

Choosing what rings

Notifications follow your bell. Anything you mute under Your alerts in Intelligent alerts is muted on your devices too. There is no second set of settings to keep in step.

When notifications stop

A device stops ringing when:

• You switch Notifications on this device off.
• You sign out on that device, or use Sign out of all devices.
• You leave the team or delete your account.
