Push Notification Management
This area can be used to manage all clients push subscriptions throughout the system and for the current client device. You can open this management area by clicking the "Bell" button in the top right corner in the WebUI. When the bell has a "Slash" through it; this means that push notifications are NOT enabled on this device. To enable push notifications first make sure the Notification Key field is set. If it's not already set you can grab your notification key from the "My Account" area at streamshuttle.com. Then press the "Enable Push notifications" button to create and synchronize a new push subscription for this device.
*If this is the first time enabling push notifications within the system, you will need to restart all device streams before they will work as expected.
By enabling the snooze functionality all external push notifications will be suppressed until the snooze period has ended. This is useful if you are having an event or something and don't want to keep getting alerts all day.
