## Notifications
72+
73+
74+
Receive push notifications about task updates and completions without keeping the app open.
75+
76+
### Requirements
77+
- Signed in to your Roomote account on the device.
78+
- Supported browser with Notifications, Service Workers, and Push:
79+
- iPhone/iPad (iOS 16.4+): Safari installed to Home Screen is required.
80+
- Android: Chrome, Edge, Firefox (install optional).
81+
- Desktop: Chrome, Edge, Firefox, Safari 16+ on macOS (Ventura+)
82+
- Allow notifications when prompted by the browser/OS.
83+
84+

- iPhone/iPad (Safari)
90+
1. Open https://app.roocode.com.
91+
2. Share › Add to Home Screen › Add.
92+
3. Launch Roo Code from the Home Screen icon.
93+
4. In the app: Settings › User › Push Notifications — turn On; allow the permission prompt.
94+
- Android (Chrome)
95+
1. Open https://app.roocode.com.
96+
2. Optional: Menu › Add to Home screen / Install app.
97+
3. Settings › User › Push Notifications — turn On; allow the permission prompt.
98+
- Desktop
99+
1. Open https://app.roocode.com and sign in.
100+
2. Settings › User › Push Notifications — turn On; allow the permission prompt.
101+
102+
### Manage per device
103+
- Location: Settings › User.
104+
- The Push Notifications switch controls only the current browser/device.
105+
- To stop notifications on a device, toggle Off there or use OS/browser notification settings for Roo Code.
106+
107+
### What to expect
108+
- A permission prompt the first time you enable notifications.
109+
- Alerts for task updates and completions.
110+
- Clicking a notification opens Roo Code, usually to the relevant task.
111+
112+
### Troubleshooting
113+
- No permission prompt: Use a supported browser, disable private/incognito mode, and ensure site notifications aren't blocked.
114+
- iPhone not receiving: Make sure Roo Code is installed to Home Screen, opened from the icon, and Push Notifications is On.
115+
- Duplicate notifications: You've enabled them on multiple devices. Turn them Off on devices you don't want.
116+
- Nothing arrives: Check system notification settings for Roo Code, confirm you're signed in, and that Push Notifications is On.
117+
118+
### Limits
119+
- iOS requires installing to Home Screen (iOS 16.4+).
120+
- Private/incognito modes and some corporate policies can block notifications or background updates.
121+
- An internet connection is required to receive notifications.
122+
- Enabling on one device does not enable on others; manage each device separately.
