Notifications
Slirc can ping you when there's something new in a channel or DM, even when the app is closed.
Turning them on
Tap the bell icon in the header, then allow notifications when the browser asks. Your browser handles the rest; no account settings needed.
Note
If the browser blocks notifications, open this site's settings from the address bar, set Notifications to Allow, and reload.
Three levels: all, mentions, none
Tap the bell to cycle between three modes:
- All: every new message in your channels and DMs.
- Mentions: only messages that mention your nick.
- Off: no notifications on any of your devices.
Notifications only arrive for channels you're a member of, and you won't be pinged about your own messages.
One choice, every device
Your notification level is stored with your account, not your device. A change applies to every subscription on your account; each device picks up the saved setting when Slirc loads.
Multiline messages are bundled into a single notification instead of pinging once per line.
