Turn on push notifications on your phone
Push notifications are sent by the KALEA server: they arrive even when the app is closed. Each person turns them on on their own phone.
Step 1 : Open the Android app
Push notifications only work in the KALEA app for Android. Start it and sign in.
Step 2 : Open the setting
Go to “My account”, “Contact & Alerts” section, “Push notification on this phone” block. You will also find it in “Reminders & notifications”, “Push notifications (mobile app)” section. On a phone, tap a section title to unfold it.
Step 3 : Turn on the switch
Tap “Receive due-date reminders as push notifications”.
Step 4 : Grant the Android permission
If the permission has not already been granted, Android asks for permission to show notifications: accept. This request only appears when you turn the switch on, never before.
Step 5 : Check the message
KALEA shows “Notifications turned on.” under the switch.
Good to know
- On a computer or in a browser, the switch does not exist: KALEA shows “Push notifications require the Android app: install it on your phone to receive them.”
- If you refuse the permission, KALEA shows “Permission denied: Android will not show any notification. You can grant it in the app settings.”
- To turn notifications off on this phone, tap the switch again: “Notifications turned off on this device.”
- The switch is personal, but it is not enough to receive due-date reminders: they are only sent if the company has turned push on and targeted your access level. Who is notified, and how far ahead, is set separately: see choose who receives notifications.
- Tapping a notification opens the relevant screen directly: the machine's page, the work order or the support request.
- In “Reminders & notifications”, a second switch, “Remind me of dated due dates on this device”, schedules reminders on the phone itself, without a network; the “Test the local reminder now” button lets you check that they appear.
