Fix the search when the items are wrong
Open several recent matches and name the repeated problem. Are they accessories, the wrong model, outside the useful area or advertised in an unacceptable condition? Tighten that one buying requirement rather than turning off every notification in frustration.
Use AI criteria for the actual item requirement and word filters for clear recurring title patterns. Pause a search when the buying need has ended. Pausing stops active checking and releases its slot, while preserving a useful setup if you later need it again.
Use the phone when the timing is wrong
Once notification permission is allowed, Flipinator registers this installation automatically. Use your phone’s notification settings for Flipinator to choose the available sound, lock-screen and interruption options. Quiet modes and notification summaries can affect when an alert becomes noticeable.
These controls belong to the device. Changing one phone does not automatically change another phone or browser signed in to your account. Check each device where you want alerts, and keep Feed as a place to catch up when you choose not to be interrupted.
Trace silence from Feed to the phone
First check whether a new match exists in Feed. If there is no match, review the search’s active state and filters. If Feed has a new match but the phone is silent, open Flipinator Settings and inspect the current-device alert status, then review the phone’s permission and quiet-delivery controls.
After changing notification permission in the operating system, return to Flipinator so it can refresh this installation’s status. A phone without connectivity, a revoked permission or a quiet notification presentation can miss the visible interruption even while your account’s searches continue. Give support the approximate time and device type if the problem persists; do not send sign-in codes.
A practical checklist
- Decide whether the problem is relevance or interruption.
- Refine one repeated mismatch in the search.
- Pause searches after the buying job ends.
- Check notification settings on each device.
- Compare Feed with this-device alert status before troubleshooting.
Common questions
Can I choose email instead of phone alerts?
Flipinator uses browser and mobile push for listing alerts. There is no email-alert or per-search delivery selector.
Will quiet delivery pause my searches?
No. Device notification settings affect interruption on that device. Search activity and Feed are separate.
Does a push guarantee I can still buy the item?
No. Availability can change. Open the original listing and confirm with the seller before acting.
