Step 8: Ask for Notification Permission on Launch

  • Once you turn on this, the app will request the notification permission from the user when it is first installed SB 11.jpeg

  • If you disable this setting, you can still request permission later by adding a Trigger URL, where the permission prompt will appear when users visit that specific page. A Trigger URL is a link that activates something in your app when users click on it, leading to a specific action or path.
