## Just to share the reply I got from Glide last week regarding the push notification feature not working.

For many users, push notifications are an essential feature for maintaining real-time engagement with an app. When these notifications don’t work, it can be frustrating and pose a significant challenge. If you’ve been experiencing issues with push notifications in your Glide app, you’re not alone. We’ll explain why this is happening and what you can do about it.  
After extensive research, the Glide team decided to demote Push Notifications to Beta status. This change is largely due to limitations within the Progressive Web App (PWA) ecosystem, which is not fully supported across all operating system (OS) and device combinations.  
One of the primary issues we’ve encountered is with iOS devices. Specifically, deep links on iOS simply don’t work right now. This limitation is particularly problematic because it means notifications might not reach users in the expected manner.  
On Android devices, the situation is a bit different. Battery optimization features on some Android devices are killing services running in the background, including those required for push notifications. As a result, users may not receive notifications consistently.  
Glide apps are Progressive Web Apps (PWAs) and, as such, are limited by the capabilities of the larger PWA ecosystem. While PWAs offer numerous advantages, they also come with specific limitations, especially concerning push notifications.  
We understand how critical reliable push notifications are for your applications. While we’re actively seeking solutions to improve and stabilize this feature, the only alternative we can offer at this time is email notifications.  
Please keep an eye on updates in the Glide community and our “What’s New in Glide” announcements. We’re continually working to enhance our features and provide you with the best possible tools for your applications.
