Enable notifications

Good Times sends push notifications for the things you actually care about: your next game starting, a schedule change, a new announcement, a chat message from your team. No marketing, no digest, no nonsense.

On Android / Chrome / Firefox desktop

1. Open your event site and sign in.
2. Open your profile from the header.
3. Click Enable notifications. Your browser will ask for permission — click Allow.
4. That's it. Notifications will now show on your lock screen.

On iOS / Safari

Apple requires you to install the site as a PWA before push notifications work. This isn't a Good Times quirk — it's an Apple platform rule.

1. Open the event site in Safari (not Chrome on iPhone — Chrome on iPhone uses the same engine but doesn't get full PWA features).
2. Tap the Share button at the bottom of the screen.
3. Scroll down and tap Add to Home Screen.
4. Tap Add.
5. Close Safari and open the event site from the new home screen icon.
6. Sign in and go to your profile.
7. Tap Enable notifications. iOS will ask for permission — tap Allow.

If you skip step 3, enabling notifications will show a message asking you to install as a PWA first.

What you'll get notified about

• Game starting — 15 minutes before your next scheduled game
• Score confirmation — when your opponent reports a score you need to confirm
• Chat message — new team chat messages (toggle off if your team is noisy)
• Announcement — when the organizer pins something important
• Schedule change — if a game of yours is moved

Turning it off

Same place: profile -> Disable notifications. Or go to your browser / OS settings and revoke the permission for the site.
