Browser Notifications (Web App)
In the Onoff Web App, you always receive calls, messages, and voicemails inside the application interface.
If you also want to be notified outside the app (for example, when the tab is in the background), you can enable browser notifications.
You can find this section here:
Web App → Account settings → Preferences → Browser notifications
What Browser Notifications Do
Browser notifications are simple alerts that inform you that:
- you received a call
- you received a new message
- you received a new voicemail
⚠️ They do not display the content of the message or voicemail.
They only notify you that something was received.
