Enabling PWA Notifications on Desktop

Follow

NiteFlirt notifications help you stay connected even when you aren't actively watching the site. To receive desktop notifications, you'll need to enable Push Notifications in your NiteFlirt Account and allow your browser to send notifications.

You can also check your browser's sound settings to make sure you can hear NiteFlirt alerts when they arrive.

Make Sure You Can Hear Notifications

Allowing notifications determines whether NiteFlirt can send an alert to your computer. Whether you hear that alert also depends on your browser and computer sound settings.

For audible NiteFlirt alerts, make sure:

  • NiteFlirt notifications are enabled in your Account.
  • Your browser is allowed to send NiteFlirt notifications.
  • Your browser or NiteFlirt web app is allowed to play sound.
  • Your computer's volume is turned up and isn't muted.
  • Do Not Disturb, Focus, or similar settings aren't silencing notifications.

🔔 Flirts: Available for Cam?

Desktop notifications can help alert you when a customer sends an incoming Cam request. If you're relying on an audible alert, make sure notifications and sound are both enabled. Check out Cam Notifications for more information about incoming Cam alerts.

Not Receiving Notifications?

If NiteFlirt notifications aren't appearing, or they're appearing without sound, check the following:

  • Go to ⋮ > Account Info > Push Notifications and confirm Push Notifications are enabled in NiteFlirt.
  • Confirm that your browser allows notifications from NiteFlirt.
  • Check your computer's notification settings to make sure notifications from your browser or NiteFlirt aren't blocked.
  • If you see notifications but don't hear them, check your browser, system volume, and notification sound settings.
  • Make sure Do Not Disturb, Focus, or similar settings aren't silencing alerts.
  • Close and reopen NiteFlirt after changing permissions.
