Web push notifications support/enhancement

Vlad Yeah, but can't you just try using it by making some dummy accounts? Anyways, I think you can just use this one: https://pushassist.com/push-notification-demo/

Fill up the form then press the SEND ME A NOTIFICATION button.

Above uses Web Push API, and the type that Orion supports are the ones that use APNS (Apple Push Notification Service) like this one: https://www.bennish.net/web-notifications.html

jp06 Thanks for the clarification. I was not aware there are two types of push notifications.

I tried that website in Safari and it did not work, am I missing something? (I am currently on Catalina though) Can you show how this looks in Safari?

Vlad Sorry, I may have confused it with using a Chromium browser before. I upgraded to Safari 16 and used it, and it didn't work there for me either. However, I tried with https://cleverpush.com/en/test-notifications/ in Monterey and it didn't work for me too (no notification permission getting requested). @catch-22 Do I also have to upgrade to Ventura for this to work?

@Vlad on my first and second posts on this thread I mentioned that only Safari 16 (and later) supports the Web Push API, used Twitter as the example (with screenshots), and even linked to the documentation of both types of notification types... I'm confused as to why this topic is going around in circles 😕

That said, pushassist.com doesn't seem to work for me either.
I'm testing with this one: https://cleverpush.com/en/test-notifications/
And these are the results I get:

Safari 16.x

When clicking on the "greetings" button for the first time
When clicking on it again:

Arc browser:

Orion 0.99.124.4.4-rc (WebKit 616.1.14.11.1):

catch-22 Thanks for the detailed description it now makes sense.

Just a side effect of me reading every single post and new comment on this site. Sometimes I do not have to re-read the thread all over again, every time, and I ask people to summarize the ask.

jp06 Yes, the Apple documentation mentions that this only works from Ventura onwards

Lack of push notifications is keeping me from switching over and making Orion my default browser. Please fix this!

Push notificaitons in Orion are still not supported by Facebook as of now.

Normally there will be a toggle switch for it if the browser is supported.

So this thread might answer an issue I’ve been having. Orion still does not support notifications via Web Push API? Some sites work for me, most don’t though. I assume this is the reason? Is there a timeline for the Push API being implemented? I’m new to Orion and really love it, but man I need notifications for Outlook and ClickUp and they don’t work currently.

I'm new to the browser and really like it, but it appears that notifications just don't work. I'm on MacOS Sequoia and cannot get them to work at all. Is there some kind of trick to get this to work?

Some kind of notification should show.

thekendog Perhaps showing steps to reproduce the issue?

Vlad so after looking through some other threads on here, it appears that Orion doesn't support the Web Push API. I think that's my issue.

J-xon What is it like in Safari?

Vlad Safari looks like the first image
I just took a screenshot:

And a bit off twitter topic perhaps, but still related to notifications,
I'm not getting notifications from youtube

A prompt appeared, just like this one, https://orionfeedback.org/assets/files/2023-06-28/1687956837-419706-screenshot-2023-06-28-at-14735-pm.png

I clicked "Don't Enable".

I cannot find anywhere to enable notifications within the app. I also do not see Orion in in the list of apps under System Settings >> Notifications.

It would be great if there was a way to authorize Orion's notifications after initially not allowing notifications.
