Same issue, managed to get the error text from the toast message, related to Android notification channels.

S22U, Android 13

I also experience this issue on Android 13 / Pixel 6

Having this problem too. Hadn't checked my Bluesky in a while because of it, went back to a bunch of interesting stuff that I'd missed. How disappointing.

Same issue on Android 13 with an Xperia 1 IV

Tried to hack on this earlier today. React Native really isn't my thing, but I did manage to get the channel wired up for Android. Couldn't figure out how to get it to check the notification permissions on the device, it always returned a bizarre object with generic keys and no indication that permission was allowed despite me confirming it was turned on. Never ended up getting a push notification, though, on the emulator. Do we know for sure that the server side has push enabled?

I also don't see any notification preferences in the app with which to control them.

New BlueSky user here, and going to BlueSky settings, there are apparently no settings available for notifications. It's a shame since it is however a basic functionality of an application, and especially of a social network. I sincerely hope it will be implemented soon !

Bumping this too. The app does request notification permission, but never pubs to any channels.

Update: apparently this seems to be an issue service-wide, and also impacts iOS users

Same problem on android, bumping this.

Everyone, please! No more "me too" comments. Notifications don't work at all on Android, it's obvious. Given that this issue is now three months old, it's clearly not any kind of priority for the developers and comment spam isn't going to change that. Please thumbs-up the issue description instead.

Thank you for the update Paul.

I saw this was implemented in a recent update, but I've noticed the notifications come in quite delayed. Is this something the team is aware of? Should I open a new issue?

@razethion system notifications or in-app? How much delay?

System notifications. It's usually like 10-15 minutes, it seems to be a pretty consistent delay.

I don't have any weird battery optimization settings enabled for the app so it definitely seems like some serverside thing

Bumping this as I am still not receiving any notifications on the iOS app

There seems to have been a regression at some point as I'm currently unable to get any push notifications on Android with version 1.90.1. Notifications are allowed, there are no battery optimizations / background usage limits enabled for the app as far as I can tell.

Edit: Just saw there's a more recent issue filed for this. #5226

Google changed up some APIs, we're in the process of updating our clients

On iOS I got the same problem, no notifications are displayed. Makes it very very quiet ... 🤨

Can this please be fixed? I very often forget I even have the app installed because it never sends me anything xD
