Have you tried out push notifications?

revhtree · Jul 19, 2019

We now have a cool feature to alert you via a notification! It's not available on IOS as of yet but it's available on your desktop and on other mobile devices. You can enable and adjust your settings here: https://www.reef2reef.com/account/preferences

Here you can see where you edit the options and also in the bottom corner see how they pop up! I'm on a laptop BTW!

Very cool add on! Alot of people like getting push notifications instead of a bunch of emails, so this may be a good option for them

So...you're saying Android is ...better?

Just enabled these on my cell phone.Not that I need more enabling. I thought it was nifty when I got my first notification.

You’ll get notifications directly to your phone just like you would on an app.

None as of yet.

This is an IOS thing that they don't currently allow. That's why it works on anything but IOS devices.

I can click on push notifications. It takes me to the screen to block or allow. I'm unable to click an option. I have to close r2r or hit the back button at that point it will auto block push notifications.

Ive got a droid

And... the fact that you get more R2R through Android should have everyone making the jump in 3...2...1...
