Why do I no longer receive push notifications on the mobile app?

There are certain scenarios under which app notifications can cease to work, most of which we unfortunately cannot influence directly.
As the reasons for missing notifications can vary greatly between devices, operating systems and player behavior, please find some tipps and tricks below to re-enable your app notifications:

  • Check if push notifications are enabled in the app (Settings → Push notifications)
    The app can only display notifications if they are enabled in the settings. Please make sure to select all actions you would like to receive notifications for.

  • Check the notification settings of your phone. They are usually located in the App- or Notification Settings section of your device.
    If notifications are disabled on device side, Heroes of History cannot receive any notifications, even if they are enabled within the app.

  • Check power savings/performance options of your device and see if exceptions/adjustments can be made for apps running in the background.
    Most recent mobile operating systems provide extensive power savings and performance options. Unfortunately they tend close or limit apps and processes running in the background by default, in order to improve battery life or the device's performance. The Heroes of History app requires a service running in the background to receive and display push notifications in a timely and reliable manner. Since the settings vary greatly between different device manufacturers, please refer to official documentation on how to set exceptions to ensure that all notifications will come through.

  • Make sure that your device is connected to Play Store or App Store services. You need to have an active connection to the services of your device's store provider in order to receive notifications.

  • If neither of the above works, please uninstall and reinstall the app and clear the app cache. Also make sure to update your device's operating system whenever there is an update available.
