# Subscribe from the Web UI
|
|
|
|
You can use the Web UI to subscribe to topics as well. Simply type in the topic name and click the *Subscribe* button.
|
|
|
|
While subscribing, you have the option to enable background notifications on supported browsers.
|
|
|
|
- If background notifications are off:
|
|
|
|
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.
