If you're not receiving any notifications for new conversations or messages, please check if you have notifications enabled on your Android device.

 

Android menu names vary by manufacturer and OS version. The device-specific examples below include older versions. If a path does not match your phone, use its current notification and app battery settings instead. Changing battery optimization can increase battery use.

Can't hear the incoming notifications

 

Please check if your device isn't muted (swipe your finger down from the upper edge of the screen). If it is muted, you will need to turn the sound back on. Another reason for this may be that you have the notifications turned off in the app. Please go to the Tidio app, open Settings > Notifications, and enable the notification types you need. Check the Sound setting for each type. 

Troubleshooting in Tidio

Start in the Tidio mobile app. Open Settings > Notifications > Notification Troubleshooting. If the check reports battery optimization, tap Open Battery Settings, then Go to battery settings. Follow the prompt to set Tidio to Don't optimize.

After changing the setting, return to troubleshooting and tap Run again. You can also tap Send a Test Message to test your settings.
