| 3 | Sign in to T3 Connect, link your environments, and enable **Device Notifications** in **Settings → Notifications** to receive alerts when an agent finishes, fails, needs approval, or asks for input. Tap a notification to open its thread. Your environment must have agent activity publishing enabled. |

| 5 | Enable **Ongoing Agent Activity** on Android or **Live Activity Updates** on iOS to follow work without opening the app. Finished results remain visible for up to 15 minutes. You can dismiss an Android activity card without disabling alerts; turn off ongoing activity in Settings to stop future cards. |

| 7 | Ordinary alerts stay quiet while the mobile app is in the foreground. Ongoing activity continues to update. Viewing a thread on another device does not silence your phone's alerts. |

| 9 | Android notifications require Android 7.0 or newer and Google Play services. Android 16 and newer can promote ongoing activity to a Live Update, subject to system settings and device support. Other devices show a regular ongoing notification. Android 7's battery-saving modes can delay removal of expired cards. |

| 11 | Notification permission and Android notification channels are controlled in system Settings. Background delivery requires T3 Connect; a direct or Tailscale connection alone does not enable push notifications. The mobile app does not need to maintain a connection to your environment. Force-stopping the Android app in system Settings prevents push delivery until you open it again. |
