Troubleshooting

Some configurations on Android devices might interfere with the push-notifications. Use the guide below to ensure you receive push notifications on the Android devices:

  • 1. Battery Optimization
    • Go to Settings > Battery > Battery Optimization (or Apps on some devices).
    • Ensure that the browser used for installing TableSoccer is not optimized. You can set it to "Not Optimized" to allow it to run in the background.
  • 2. Background Data Restrictions
    • Go to Settings > Apps > Browser used during installation > Data Usage.
    • Make sure Background Data is enabled. If it's restricted, the app might not receive notifications when it's not actively in use.
  • 3. Battery Saver Mode
    • If your phone is in Battery Saver Mode (found under Settings > Battery), it might restrict background processes, including push notifications.
  • 4. Adaptive Battery
    • Some Android versions include an Adaptive Battery feature (found under Settings > Battery).
    • This feature limits battery usage for apps you don’t use often, which might stop notifications. Consider turning it off or checking if your app is affected.
  • 5. Doze Mode
    • If your phone is idle for a long time, Doze Mode might be activated, delaying notifications. This isn't usually user-configurable, but turning off Battery Optimization for specific apps can help mitigate its effects.
