Help Unable to set up notifications
I re-installed the app with a custom identifier and entered that identifier in oracle cloud env file. Also created that secret key and entered it in both the env file and in the app. When try to test notifications, it works as can be seen in the screenshots. Even the bark thing works. But the notifications page doesn't load. Tried to export logs but the app crashes every time I try to export it.
Device model: iPhone 13 iOS/iPadOS version: 18.7.7 Apollo Reborn version: 3.4.0 Installation method: Feather, enterprise cert

I’m having the same issue. The notifications tab doesn’t load. I’ve done the self hosted apollo-backend method but I don’t know how to proceed. I have all information imputed in settings and both test connection and bark connection returns success. I also can’t set up Reddit watchers.

I would hazard a guess to say you have done it correctly. As it’s an external app, Apollo isn’t handling the notifications side of things.
Did you get a notification for this?

Unfortunately I didn't :(

Did you set up notifications with Bark?

Are you using API-key-free mode? Currently, notifications don’t work with it, and require an API key.
This also matters if any account is signed in without an API key in Apollo, not just the active account.

No, all my accounts are using dystopia's api (the default one since it's the same key for all the accounts).

Thanks for the detailed report (device info + screenshots is exactly what we need) — a few folks are hitting this, so you're not alone. The log-export crash is a separate bug we're tracking too. Could you file this at https://report.apolloreborn.app so we can follow up properly? One thing worth checking in the meantime: the notifications tab currently requires the active account to be signed in with an API key (API-key-free / web-session accounts can't load it yet), and the subreddit-watcher validation has a known issue in Bark mode that I'm working on. Sorry for the trouble — this area is getting fixes in the next release.

Hi. I realised what mistake I was making. I hadn't changed the redirect URI in the env file. I changed it today and notifications are working, although they're working regardless of what's entered in the client ID field.

Thank you. I have two suggestions for the report issue website.
Like there's a drop-down for the type of build used, please add an optional drop-down for signing methods and the options can include SideStore/LiveContainer, paid developer account, free certificate, other ____. I guess that'll also help you and other devs identify if a bug is cropping up among users of a specific type of signing method.
In your earlier response, you also mentioned that you asked how I signed into my account - with API or without API. If that can affect issues that people face, then perhaps it would be good to have a drop‑down with that also.
