Notes on receiving browser notifications
It's important to keep in mind the following when it comes to browser notifications for Tribe — these factors can help determine if additional steps need to be taken to ensure you are receiving Tribe notifications at the browser level:
- Ensure that your computer operating system has notifications turned on for browsers.
- Ensure that your notifications are turned on at the browser level.
- Make sure that your notifications are set to either Always or When I Am Mentioned within Tribe groups. This setting is located in Group Settings by clicking the gear icon on the right side of your Tribe screen.
