4.1 Push notifications

Projectyl supports web push notifications so you can stay informed even when you're not actively using the app.

  • Click Enable on this device to subscribe the current browser/device.
  • Each registered device appears in the Registered Devices list, showing the browser and platform (e.g. "Safari on iOS", "Brave on macOS") and when it was last active.
  • Click the × next to any device to unsubscribe it from push notifications.

Brave browser users: Brave blocks push notifications by default. Follow the in-app guide to enable them, or go to Brave's site settings and allow notifications for Projectyl.
