# Subscribe from the web app
|
|
The web app lets you subscribe and publish messages to ntfy topics. For ntfy.sh, the web app is available at [ntfy.sh/app](https://ntfy.sh/app).
|
|
To subscribe, simply type in the topic name and click the *Subscribe* button. **After subscribing, messages published to the topic
|
|
will appear in the web app, and pop up as a notification.**
|
|
|
|
<div id="subscribe-screenshots" class="screenshots">

<a href="../../static/img/web-subscribe.png"><img src="../../static/img/web-subscribe.png"/></a>
|
|
</div>
|
|
|
|
## Publish messages
|
|
To learn how to send messages, check out the [publishing page](../publish.md).

<div id="web-screenshots" class="screenshots">

<a href="../../static/img/web-detail.png"><img src="../../static/img/web-detail.png"/></a>

## Topic reservations
|
|
If topic reservations are enabled, you can claim ownership over topics and define access to it:
|
|
|
|
<div id="reserve-screenshots" class="screenshots">
|
|
<a href="../../static/img/web-reserve-topic.png"><img src="../../static/img/web-reserve-topic.png"/></a>
|
|
<a href="../../static/img/web-reserve-topic-dialog.png"><img src="../../static/img/web-reserve-topic-dialog.png"/></a>
|
|
</div>
|
|
|
|
## Background notifications
|
|
While subscribing, you have the option to enable background notifications on supported browsers (see "Settings" tab).
|
|
|
|
**If background notifications are off (default):** This requires an active ntfy tab to be open to receive notifications.
|
|
These are typically instantaneous, and will appear as a system notification. If you don't see these, check that your browser
|
|
is allowed to show notifications (for example in System Settings on macOS). If you don't want to enable background notifications,
|
|
**pinning the ntfy tab on your browser** is a good solution to leave it running.
|
|
|
|
**If background notifications are on:** This uses the [Web Push API](https://caniuse.com/push-api). You don't need an active
|
|
ntfy tab open, but in some cases you may need to keep your browser open. Background notifications are only supported on the
|
|
same server hosting the web app. You cannot use another server, but can instead subscribe on the other server itself.
|
|
|
|
If the ntfy app is not opened for more than a week, background notifications will be paused. You can resume them
|
|
by opening the app again, and will get a warning notification before they are paused.
