Mobile push integration
Get alerts on the HowlOps mobile app without configuring a separate notification channel.
What this brings you
Mobile push is the fastest way to notice an incident when you're away from your desk. Unlike the other channels on this page, there's nothing to wire up in Notification channels: once you sign in on the HowlOps mobile app and grant notification permission, your device starts receiving push alerts for the incidents and escalation steps that reach you.
Setup
- Install the HowlOps mobile app and sign in with your workspace account.
- When prompted, grant the app permission to send notifications. If you skipped the prompt, enable it in your device's system settings for the HowlOps app.
- In HowlOps, go to Settings > Profile to confirm push is listed among your notification preferences, and adjust which event types reach you there.
Mobile push delivers through APNs (iOS), FCM, or Expo depending on platform. If a push alert never arrives, first check that the app is signed in and notification permission is granted on the device; this is the most common cause of missing mobile alerts.
