iOS 16 web push notifications in 2023

@RGJ’s link links to a recent bug fix. The fix just went in today, and probably isn’t deployed yet.

FIX: Push notification delay should not be longer than specified

Even when that fix goes live, there’s still a 10-minute push notification window, during which pushes don’t get set if you’ve visited the site in the last ten minutes; that’s a site-wide setting.

I’ve filed a feature request that this should be configurable.

Let users configure their own push notification time window

push_notification_time_window is a site-wide setting; it’s 10 minutes by default. [image] Wait (n) minutes before sending push notification. Helps prevent push notifications from being sent to an active online user. I think this should be a user preference, instead of a site-wide setting. Some users might prefer 0-minute window or 1-minute window (especially when they’re testing push notifications); others might prefer a 10 minute window, or an even longer window.
