How does the app work?

All notifications coming from sources are processed by the Notify.Events service itself, and the app acts as a recipient, triggering push notifications on your Apple device. Therefore, in order to use the application, you must already have an active Notify.Events account and a created channel/.

To do this, after setting up the app, go to the channel screen and click on the desired recipient or the Edit button to go to the subscription customization screen.
