-Notifications work quite well on Android: That means, whenever you receive a notification from Geminar, the phone would alert you (Unless of course, you set your phone to not show them)  However; lately on iPhones, there is a quirk: It may not alert you; so you may need to occasionally look at your phone to see if you have indeed received any notifications from Geminars.+Notifications work quite well on Android: That means, whenever you receive a notification from //Geminars//, the phone would alert you (Unless of course, you set your phone to not show them)  However; lately on iPhones, there is a quirk due to the changes in their privacy policy: It may not alert you; so you may need to occasionally look at your phone to see if you have indeed received any notifications from //Geminars//. I believe the author of ntfy.sh is aware of this quirk and is possibly working on a remedy.

 +**IMPORTANT** The notifications on the phone are only handled by the aforementioned //ntfy.sh// app installed on that phone.
