Not getting notifications

Check notification settings and device permissions.

Last updated 2026-02-25

Park Bench notification support is still being developed. Here's what's currently available and what's coming.

Current state

Push notifications are not yet available in Park Bench. Event reminders and alerts are planned for a future update.

How to stay on top of your schedule

In the meantime, here are ways to make sure you don't miss events:

Google Calendar notifications — If you've connected Google Calendar, your synced events will trigger whatever notification settings you have in Google Calendar. This is the best way to get reminders right now.

Apple Calendar notifications — If you subscribe to the ICS feed, you can set up notifications in Apple Calendar for events from the feed.

Check the app daily — Open Park Bench and check the Home tab to see what's on today and coming up this week.

When notifications are coming

We're working on push notifications for event reminders, circle activity, and recommendation updates. This will be available in a future update.
