# Push notifications

What are push notifications?

Push notifications are small, pop-up messages that Xaman (formerly Xumm) will display on your phone to alert you of various transactions on your XRP Ledger account. Push notifications cover real-time transactional messages, updates, support messages and more, all of which will help keep you up-to-date on your XRPL account.

### *Frequently asked Questions*

#### What are some of the push notifications I will receive?

Here is an example from a typical phone running Android:

Notice the <img src="https://3221812686-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FMiHAzvIPISVuuzt0AeOR%2Fuploads%2Fgit-blob-6a2955fe3d5f94269443204cc7bd06f5d8d86d09%2Fimage.png?alt=media" alt="" data-size="line"> at the top of the image and the <img src="https://3221812686-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FMiHAzvIPISVuuzt0AeOR%2Fuploads%2Fgit-blob-b7586ac866601770a45eb8d4d48e5fcd1c34f056%2Fimage.png?alt=media" alt="" data-size="line"> on the Xaman icon. These are indicators that there has been some activity on your account.

If you tap the <img src="https://3221812686-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FMiHAzvIPISVuuzt0AeOR%2Fuploads%2Fgit-blob-476ec7f519612d2af4cc6214cee221c29d117537%2Fimage.png?alt=media" alt="" data-size="line"> you can view the details of the activity. Here are a couple examples of push notifications sent by Xaman:

<figure><img src="https://3221812686-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FMiHAzvIPISVuuzt0AeOR%2Fuploads%2Fgit-blob-052489e3312d6787d5c28c0f0fd4dd29b9908230%2FPush%20notifications%20-%202.png?alt=media" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

In the first example, you can see that a payment of .000001 XRP was received in the XRPL account labelled "Will" and in the second example you can see that the Xaman Support team has replied to a ticket created via the [Xaman Support xApp](broken://pages/EtfbIEsDCAwhtCdOHMsR).

#### Where can I find this in Pro?

<figure><img src="https://3221812686-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FMiHAzvIPISVuuzt0AeOR%2Fuploads%2Fgit-blob-d0cc7b301ebb9cb7235793d2902d97e9a299efd3%2FPush%20notifications%20-%203.png?alt=media" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

Once you go into the **Push notifications** section, you should see a list of accounts you can enable push notifications for.

This need to be enabled in order to receive push notifications.

### Frequently Asked Questions

#### I am not receiving receiving push notifications while I am in Xaman.

You will only receive push notifications if Xaman is **not running**. If you are in the application, push notifications will not be sent. (You can always check the Events log for any activity on your account.)

#### I was receiving notifications but now I am not getting them any more.

1\) Go into Pro, select **Push Notifications**, then **Disable** the account you are not receiving notifications on.

2\) Exit Xaman, then launch Xaman and launch Pro, select **Push Notifications**, then **Enable** the account.

3\) Exit Xaman, then have someone send XRP to your account to test it.\
\
Note: Basically you are disabling push notifications on the account, then re-enabling push notifications. Remember, Xaman has to be closed in order to receive notifications.

#### I did a conversion payment. Why didn't I receive a notification?

On an exchange (conversion) transaction. That transaction type is outside the notification scope because there is no third party involved in the source+destination. It is a Payment so it is instant. If it was an offer that was passively on the order books and triggered by a third party, then it would have triggered a notification.

From our perspective, it doesn't make much sense to notify for something someone is doing on the spot. You know that you are doing it so why would we notify you of something you are already looking at on the screen.

You will only receive push notifications if Xaman is **not running**. If you are in the application, push notifications will not be sent. (You can always check the Events log for any activity on your account.)

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

```
GET https://help.xaman.app/app/xaman-pro/features-of-pro/push-notifications.md?ask=<question>&goal=<user_goal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
