@ -25,15 +25,27 @@ can enable this for your Zulip server as follows:
https://push.zulipchat.com` line in your `/etc/zulip/settings.py`
file, and
[restart your Zulip server](prod-maintain-secure-upgrade.html#updating-settings).
Note that if you installed Zulip older than 1.6, you'll need to add
the line (it won't be there to uncomment).
That should be all you need to do!
To test whether you've configured it properly, just
[configure mobile push notifications to always be sent][notification-settings],
start the
[Zulip Android app](https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.zulip.android),
in the background, and then have another user send you private
messages. They should appear in the Android notification area.
To test whether you've configured it properly, you should do the
following:
* [Configure mobile push notifications to always be sent][notification-settings]
(normally they're only sent if you're idle, which isn't ideal for
this sort of testing).
* On an Android device, download and login to the
[Zulip Android app](https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.zulip.android).
If you were already logged in before configuring the server, you'll
need to logout first, since the app only registers for push
notifications on login.
* Hit the home button, so Zulip is running in the background, and then
have another user send you a private message. A push notification
should appear in the Android notification area.
Zulip's [new iOS app](https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/zulip/id1203036395)
doesn't yet support push notifications, but it will by July 2017.
