Protonmail Notifications Not Working - [SOLVED]

Scroll down this page to know how to resolve the Protonmail notifications not working issue. ProtonMail is one of the end-to-end encrypted email services. It uses three types of notifications, such as Email notifications, desktop notifications, and mobile apps push notifications. The Email notifications feature allows you to link an email account of your desire. After linking the account, you’ll receive an email from ProtonMail to complete the further process. If you’re using the web version of ProtonMail, then enable the Desktop notifications feature in it to get notifications whenever you receive a new mail. ProtonMail has its own encrypted email mobile application. If you’re using your ProtonMail account on an Android or iOS phone, then you can use this application to access your account. Now, let’s see how to resolve the Proton Mail notifications not working issue.

Step 1:If you’re not receiving a notification on Desktop, then as discussed above, check whether the Desktop Notifications option is enabled on your ProtonMail account.

Step 2:Enable the Desktop Notifications option if you haven’t enabled it yet.
