# Push Notifications on Mobile

_Mobile App (iOS & Android)_

CRMown delivers push alerts for inbox messages, calendar reminders, pipeline updates, team chat mentions, automation events, and @mentions. You control which channels fire from More > Settings > Notifications.

## Steps
1. On first launch the app asks for OS-level notification permission — accept it. (You can flip this later from your phone's Settings app under "CRMown > Notifications".)
2. Go to More > Settings > Notifications inside the app to fine-tune the per-channel toggles: Inbox, Calendar, Pipeline, Team Chat, Automations, Mentions.
3. Each channel toggle controls both the bell badge and the actual push delivery — turning Pipeline off means no push and no badge bump for stage changes / new deals.
4. Notifications open the relevant screen on tap (a chat message opens the thread; a deal-stage notification opens the deal card).

## Tips
- Push prefs are stored per user, not per device — turning off Inbox push from your phone also disables it on the iPad you also have signed in.
- Quiet Hours / Do Not Disturb is honored from your phone OS — CRMown doesn't override it.
- If pushes stop arriving, the most common cause is OS-level permission was revoked (iOS sometimes does this after long inactivity). Check Settings > Notifications > CRMown on your phone and re-enable.

## Example
A sales lead has Inbox + Mentions on, Pipeline + Automations off. She gets a push the second a customer replies to a thread (Inbox) or someone @-mentions her in team chat (Mentions), but doesn't get pinged every time a deal moves stage — that noise stays on her desktop dashboard where she reviews it once a day.

## Troubleshooting
- **I'm not getting any push notifications even though they're toggled on in the app** — OS-level permission was denied or revoked. The in-app toggles control routing, but the OS controls actual delivery — if the OS says no, nothing arrives. Fix: Phone Settings > Notifications > CRMown > toggle Allow Notifications on. iOS users may also need to allow Time-Sensitive Notifications for high-priority alerts to surface on the lock screen during Focus.
- **Pushes are duplicated — I get 2 of the same alert** — You're signed in to CRMown on two devices (phone + tablet) or have two app installs (prod + staging build). Fix: Sign out of one of them. To check active sessions: web > Settings > Account > Sessions.
- **Tapping a notification opens the home screen instead of the relevant item** — Deep-link payload was missing on that specific event type, or you were in a state the app couldn't resolve to a screen (logged out, different org). Fix: Open the bell icon inside the app — every push has a matching in-app notification with the correct deep link.

## Plans
All plans get push notifications. The channel toggles match the suites you have active (Pipeline channel only fires if you have access to the pipeline; Team Chat channel only fires if Comm Pro is active on the org).
