### 🤖 Check android settings
Please check the "Notifications" section in the app settings which should show warnings if anything needs to be
adjusted.
Please take into account that the android settings might be different for each manufacturer.
It might be worth it to check what other messaging apps recommend to get their apps running on a certain smartphone and adapt this to the talk app.
Also [https://dontkillmyapp.com/](https://dontkillmyapp.com/) might be good starting point.
- Check that your phone is not in "do not disturb" mode
First of all, please make sure that the following requirements are met:
- Check that your phone has internet access
- Check the android settings like **"energy saving"** and **"notifications"** regularly as they might be reset by
android at any time!
- Check that your phone is not in "do not disturb" mode
- Energy saving options example for Xiaomi RedMi:
#### Grant permissions on install
- go to "Settings"
After the installation of Nextcloud Talk Android, dialogs appear asking you to grant the permissions.
Please note that the dialogs only appear once to respect the first decision of the users.
Depending on the Android version, only the dialogs appear that are necessary.
- "Battery & performance"
##### Grant notification permission
- "App battery saver"
A dialog to enable notification permissions after install will only be shown for Android 13 and upwards. For older
Android versions notifications have to be enabled in the AppInfo settings.
- tap on the Talk app
![Grant notification permission after install](/docs/grantNotificationPermissionAfterInstall.png "Grant notification permission after install")
- set "No restrictions"
##### Ignore battery optimization
- Notification options example for Xiaomi RedMi:
For some smartphone models, ignoring battery optimization is not necessary while for others it is. If you absolutely want to be sure notifications are received, turning it off is highly recommended.
- go to "Settings"
![Ignore battery optimization dialog](/docs/ignoreBatteryOptimizationDialog.png "Ignore battery optimization dialog")
- "Notifications"
Please follow the description to turn off battery optimization for the Talk app. In the available apps you can use the search so you don't have to scroll through the whole app list.
- tap on the Talk app
![Ignore battery optimization - select all apps](/docs/ignoreBatteryOptimizationSelectAllApps.png "Ignore battery optimization - select all apps")
- enable "Show notifications" and if you like
enable "Lock screen notifications"
Please note that the switch has to be *turned off*.
### 🗨️ Check talk app settings
- In the settings, check if ringtones are set for calls and notifications and if vibration is activated if you would
like so.
![Ignore battery optimization - turn off switch](/docs/ignoreBatteryOptimizationTurnOffSwitch.png "Ignore battery optimization - turn off switch")
#### Grant permissions in settings
##### Regular warning
If notifications settings are not set up correctly, there will be a warning in the conversation list. This is displayed regularly unless it is changed in the settings so that you are not reminded of incorrect settings.
If you select "Not now", the warning will be shown again after a few days if the settings are still wrong. When
selecting "Settings", the settings screen will appear. All incorrect settings will blink and their description is in
red color.
##### Notification settings
The notification settings can either be reached when selecting "Settings" in the regular notification warning or by
clicking on the user avatar in the right corner of the conversation list and by selecting "Settings".
In the "Notifications" section, please change every setting that is marked with a red color.
Please take into account that the android settings might look different for each manufacturer.
You can also reach these settings by long pressing on the Nextcloud Android Talk App in Android itself and by selecting
"App info".

##### Further help for permission settings
If setting the above listed permission won't help, it might be that there are special settings for your phone. It
might be worth it to check what other messaging apps recommend to get their apps running on a certain smartphone and adapt this to the talk app.
Also [https://dontkillmyapp.com/](https://dontkillmyapp.com/) might be good starting point.
### 🗨️ Check conversation settings
- In the conversation settings (in the upper right corner of a conversation), check that notifications are set to
"Always notify" or "Notify when mentioned"
- Be aware that this is a per conversation setting. Set it for every conversation differently depending on your
needs.
- Also be aware that notifications are not generated when you have an active session for a conversation. This also applies for tabs that are open in the background, etc.
- Also be aware that notifications are not generated when you have an active session for a conversation. This also
applies for browser tabs that are open in the background, etc.
### 🖥 Check server settings
