I could have sworn this was working at some point in the past, but can confirm the notifications API does not work now. window.Notification is undefined in Orion.

    Merged 3 posts from Notifications not supported.

      I just wanted to add that my pinned tabs are calendar, messenger, slack, discord and whatsapp - each of them uses Notifications API. Hopefully it will be supported soon!

        Sadly, as much as I love Orion, I'll have to switch back to Chrome, since notifications from various messenger web apps are cricital for my work. I promise to switch back as soon as Notification API is supported :-)

          Browser-notifcations are a fundamental function of today's browsers and I miss it badly.

            Hi, I started using a Macbook Air like 2-3 days ago and I am now trying different browsers (Orion one of them). My device is using macOS Monterey 12.4. I needed the notification feature for a few websites but it still doesn't seem to work right now, which is kinda a dealbreaker. Although, it definitely feels faster than Safari when I used it.

            I used the following website for testing: https://www.bennish.net/web-notifications.html

            It didn't work on Orion, but when I tried it on Safari and Brave, it worked.

              jp06 This does work In Orion properly. What didn't for you?

                  Vlad Hi @Vlad , apparently it's something to do with my System Preferences, it's fine now sorry. I fiddled with it more again and I just learned that you can also allow/disallow notifications in the System Preferences and Orion's notifications is off. Still a newbie to OS X, I've only used it extensively this like past 3 days.

                      Yeah you also need to make sure that "Allow notifications" switch is on for Orion in System Preferences. Inconvenience!

                      Hi again, I find one website that I can't make the notification permission pop-up (but it does appear on Safari). One will need to create an account to test though: https://www.wuxiaworld.com

                      Once you created an account, try clicking Enable push notifications.

                        Hi @Vlad , is there an ETA when the type of push notification I mentioned above will be supported? Thanks!

                          jp06 This post is marked as Done as Orion alrady pushed support for desktop notifications that were requested. If what you need is something different, you should create a new post with exact speficication for your feature suggestion.

                              Vlad Understood, thank you! It is also desktop push notification but not sure what exactly is different on this website's push notification making it not work no matter how I fiddle with the settings. I'll try to investigate it a bit and detail it in a separate post (when I get the time).
