Hi all,


Has anyone got the notifications function working from Android chrome?

Followed the instructions but when I click on Register Device nothing happens. . Got notifications as 'True' in my config and thought options would appear if I click on Register Device.
What am I missing?

Thanks

The frigate subreddit is probably a better place to ask:

The easiest way to get notifications is to use the Home Assistant Blueprint if you have a Home Assistant instance with external access. The notifications on Frigate only work if you're accessing Frigate through HTTPS.

As far as I can read the message:
Install frigate as a pwa app, then you will receive notifications.
Otherwise it will only notify you when your browser window is open.

My interpretation is: this will probably only work on pc, not on android.
As mentioned before, homeassistant is the way to go.
