Not Receiving Notifications Even Though Browser Notifications Are Enabled?

2 min read

Introduction #

Sometimes, users enable browser notifications to stay updated on every Kaamfu alert but still don’t receive notifications on their system. This issue usually occurs when system-level notification permissions for the browser are turned off.

To ensure Kaamfu notifications work correctly, make sure your operating system also allows your browser to send notifications.

 

Why This Issue Occurs #

Even if browser notifications are turned on within Kaamfu or your browser, your computer’s system settings can block them. This is because browsers rely on your OS-level notification permissions to deliver alerts.

Ensuring both browser and system permissions are properly configured guarantees you won’t miss important updates from Kaamfu.

 

Who Should Read This #

This article is helpful for users who:

  • Have enabled Kaamfu browser notifications but still aren’t receiving them.
  • Want to confirm that their system-level settings allow notifications.
  • Use Windows or macOS and rely on browser-based Kaamfu alerts.

These instructions apply to both individual users and workspace members using Kaamfu on the web.

 

What This Guide Covers #

This guide explains:

  • Why Kaamfu browser notifications might not appear even when enabled.
  • How to check and enable browser notifications from your system settings on Windows 11 and macOS.

By the end, you’ll ensure Kaamfu can deliver all browser-based alerts smoothly.

 

Feature Overview #

Kaamfu’s browser notifications help you stay updated on activity such as workday changes, task updates, messages, and workspace alerts.
They rely on both your browser and operating system notification permissions to function properly.

If your system doesn’t allow your browser (e.g., Chrome, Edge, Safari) to send notifications, Kaamfu alerts will not appear even if everything looks correct in-app.

Here’s a general approach to system-level settings that allow (or block) browser notifications across different operating systems. The exact names may differ slightly based on OS version.

 

macOS (Mac) #
  1. Open System Settings (or System Preferences on older macOS).
  2. Go to Notifications. (Apple Support)
  3. Scroll the list of apps until you find your browser (Safari, Chrome, Firefox, etc.).
  4. Click/select your browser, then toggle “Allow Notifications” (or a similar switch) to On. (Apple Support)
  5. Optionally, you can customize:
📝 Note: If Do Not Disturb / Focus mode is enabled, it may suppress or delay notifications. Check System Settings → Focus (or Do Not Disturb) to make sure it’s off or adjusted appropriately. (iDownloadBlog.com)

 

Windows (10 / 11) #
  1. Open Settings (Press Win + I or via Start Menu).
  2. Go to System → Notifications (or Notifications & actions in some versions). (The Windows Club)
  3. Make sure the main switch “Get notifications from apps and other senders” is turned On. (The Windows Club)
  4. Scroll down to “Notifications from apps and other senders” or similar section.
  5. Find your browser in that list (e.g. Microsoft Edge, Chrome) and toggle it On. (Digital Citizen)
    1. (Optional) Click the browser’s name in that list to access more granular settings: sound, banners, lock screen, priority, etc

.

.

📝 Note: check if Focus Assist / Do Not Disturb is active (Windows can suppress notifications during certain times or modes) and adjust accordingly. (The Windows Club)

 

After completing these steps, refresh Kaamfu in your browser and test notifications by triggering an in-app alert (for example, start or end a workday).

Ensuring both browser and system permissions are active should restore full notification functionality.
