“Mobile Notifications” is a module in Xeoma, that allows to receive immediate notifications in mobile devices running iOS (iPhone, iPad) and Android even without connecting to the server (unlike the simpler module for real-time mobile notifications “Client Window Pop-Up” that requires the app to be always running to push alerts). This module allows you to receive instant notifications, even if Xeoma application is not running on your iOS/Android. Stay up to date with standard notifications on your iPhone/iPad or Android – on the lock screen, in the Banners area, or in the Notification Center. Starting from the beta version Xeoma 20.10.22 this module is included in Xeoma Standard and Xeoma Pro editions. And starting from the beta version Xeoma 21.5.31 the new functionality has been added to the module: you can set up that the module, when triggered by the needed event, sends a real-time notification to your mobile device not only in the form of a text, but also attaches a photo from the camera taken at the moment of triggering.

Starting with Xeoma beta 23.12.7 a new item called ‘Notifications’ has been added to Main Menu -> Remote Access. Inside, you can configure the receipt of notifications on your mobile device when the connection to a Xeoma server or an external device is lost. Unlike Xeoma’s other module for system health monitoring – ‘Problem Detector’ that is also capable of detecting the occurrence of problems – ‘Notifications’ has the unique ability to send an alarm message when a Xeoma server stops working, for example, due to a power outage! Also, ‘Notifications’ will work even without connecting the ‘Mobile Notifications’ module to the chain. The only thing required is to give the Xeoma application on your mobile device (iOS, Android) permissions to show notifications the first time you connect to the Xeoma Server with the ‘Notifications’ feature.

Please be advised: Push notifications rely on Google services (for Android) and Apple services (for iPhone/iPad). Notifications may be interrupted if those services experience issues, which are outside of our control.
