Native Push Notifications Support for NodeBB

[bh4-tech@community.nodebb.org]

@julian Just like @pankaj-soni , I too would like to have push notifications on by default

[d1re_w0lf@community.nodebb.org]

Hi.
Just to be certain, push notifications still don’t work on iOS under NodeBB 4.4.4 with nodebb-plugin-web-push 0.7.4, right?

[julian@community.nodebb.org]

D1re_W0lf mmm it should work but we don't have Apple devices to test against...

[bh4-tech@community.nodebb.org]

D1re_W0lf Although I don't have an iOS device, but according to docs,on iOS web push notifications work on only those sites which have been added to home screen. So, add this site to home screen and check after few hours.

I checked logs:
Sever start with log: info: [plugins/web-push] VAPID keys OK.

Nodebb: 4.4.3
Plugin: nodebb-plugin-web-push 0.7.4

it works on: Desktop + Android
But I don't have any permission request popup to enable notifications for Nodebb on Safari Mobile and iOS
I tried also with homescreen app in iOS

Can anyone help me? julian maybe it is worth to check this behavior in Browserstack?

Yes, this is a good idea does browser stack have support for push notifications?

bh4-tech I’ll try that.
Thank you.

bh4-tech Hi gain.
Apologies for the long delay in replaying.
I tried to activate on my iPhone without any luck.
I used Safari, Chrome, and Vivaldi both directly and to "install" as a PWA, but none of it worked.

[julian@community.nodebb.org]

D1re_W0lf does it work if you add the app to the home screen?

[crazycells@community.nodebb.org]

julian thanks for this great addition julian! sorry for the late reply and "like" flood, I was not able to be around for a while, still catching up on the topics...

[d1re_w0lf@community.nodebb.org]

julian No, it does not.
Not even the push notifications button stays on.
