# Known issues
|
|
This is an incomplete list of known issues with the ntfy server, web app, Android app, and iOS app. You can find a complete
|
|
list [on GitHub](https://github.com/binwiederhier/ntfy/labels/%F0%9F%AA%B2%20bug), but I thought it may be helpful
|
|
to have the prominent ones here to link to.
|
|
|
|
## iOS app not refreshing (see [#267](https://github.com/binwiederhier/ntfy/issues/267))
|
|
For some (many?) users, the iOS app is not refreshing the view when new notifications come in. Until you manually
|
|
swipe down, you do not see the newly arrived messages, even though the popup appeared before.
|
|
|
|
This is caused by some weirdness between the Notification Service Extension (NSE), SwiftUI and Core Data. I am entirely
|
|
clueless on how to fix it, sadly, as it is ephemeral and not clear to me what is causing it.
|
|
|
|
Please send experienced iOS developers my way to help me figure this out.
|
|
|
|
## iOS app not receiving notifications (anymore)
|
|
If notifications do not show up at all anymore, there are a few causes for it (that I know of):
|
|
|
|
**Firebase+APNS are being weird and buggy**:
|
|
If this is the case, usually it helps to **remove the topic/subscription and re-add it**. That will force Firebase to
|
|
re-subscribe to the Firebase topic.
|
|
|
|
**Self-hosted only: No `upstream-base-url` set, or `base-url` mismatch**:
|
|
To make self-hosted servers work with the iOS
|
|
app, I had to do some horrible things (see [iOS instant notifications](config.md#ios-instant-notifications) for details).
|
|
Be sure that in your selfhosted server:
|
|
|
|
* Set `upstream-base-url: "https://ntfy.sh"` (**not your own hostname!**)
|
|
* Ensure that the URL you set in `base-url` **matches exactly** what you set the Default Server in iOS to
|
|
|
|
## iOS app seeing "New message", but not real message content
|
|
If you see `New message` notifications on iOS, your iPhone can likely not talk to your self-hosted server. Be sure that
|
|
your iOS device and your ntfy server are either on the same network, or that your phone can actually reach the server.
|
|
|
|
Turn on tracing/debugging on the server (via `log-level: trace` or `log-level: debug`, see [troubleshooting](troubleshooting.md)),
|
|
and read docs on [iOS instant notifications](https://docs.ntfy.sh/config/#ios-instant-notifications).
|
|
|
|
## Safari does not play sounds for web push notifications
|
|
Safari does not support playing sounds for web push notifications, and treats them all as silent. This will be fixed with
|
|
iOS 17 / Safari 17, which will be released later in 2023.
|
|
|
|
## PWA on iOS sometimes crashes with an IndexedDB error (see [#787](https://github.com/binwiederhier/ntfy/issues/787))
|
|
When resuming the installed PWA from the background, it sometimes crashes with an error from IndexedDB/Dexie, due to a
|
|
[WebKit bug]( https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=197050). A reload will fix it until a permanent fix is found.
