Notifications, Discord and Telegram

How alerts reach you, where they are configured and what to do when they do not arrive.

Why there are four roads#

Because one is not enough. The four-in-the-morning stint is the moment when every single link can break: the phone on silent, the permission never granted, a flat battery, the Wi-Fi dropping. So the alert travels several roads at once, and each covers the other's gap.

Above all of them sits night mode, which is not an alert but a real alarm.

Push notifications#

Turning them on#

From Home, section 🔔 Notifications and alarm → Enable notifications and reminders. The browser asks for permission: grant it.

On iPhone#

Notifications work only if the app was installed on the Home screen from Safari. That is Apple's rule.

If you opened the site with Chrome, or left it in a browser tab, nothing will arrive — and it is not a defect in the app.

Getting started has the exact steps.

Testing it#

🚨 Test the alarm, from the same section. Do it before your first night race, with the phone in the state you will actually leave it: on charge, on the bedside table, at the volume it will have at that hour.

The alert ladder#

Every timing is counted from check-in time, which is the swap time minus the lead set in the plan (usually fifteen minutes).

Telegram#

The most direct way not to miss a stint: the reminder lands in chat and you confirm with a tap, without opening the app.

Linking it#

Profile → Settings → ✈️ Telegram alerts → Connect Telegram. The chat with the bot opens: press Start and the link is made.

🔔 Send a test message checks that everything works.

What arrives there#

• The stint reminder, with the Confirm check-in button.
• The alerts an admin sends to the team.
• Commands to ask for your stint, the plan and the pit wall.

Discord#

Signing in#

You can sign in to EndurancePRO with Discord instead of email and password.

The commands#

In the server where the bot is present:

The message before your stint#

Anyone with Discord linked also receives a direct message before their stint.

The team channel#

An admin can configure a webhook for the squad's Discord channel in Teams → Management: team alerts, race updates and schedule changes arrive there.

The phone call#

Profile → Settings → Alert phone call. It needs your number in international format (+39...) and the Call me if I do not confirm switch.

If you have not confirmed, the system calls at 8 and 5 minutes before check-in time.

Night mode#

It is not a notification: it is an alarm. You switch it on from Race → Live before going to sleep.

It opens a full-screen page with the time, the countdown to your stint and a looping siren. The screen stays on.

Golden rules: phone on charge and volume up.

The calendar#

Not a last-minute alert, but it serves the same purpose: knowing there is a race.

The personal address in Profile → Driver → Your race calendar is added once to the calendar you already use. The races you sign up for appear there, update themselves and carry a reminder the day before and an hour before.

When nothing arrives#

Troubleshooting goes deeper.
