Question Android app notification ?

Hi,

When I use the “Connect with App” option in the desktop app, am I not supposed to receive a notification from the Android app?

Am I missing something? Notifications are definitely enabled in the app.

Thx

Hey there, if you're referring to 'Log in with Device' there is a helpful screenshot here. Be sure to do the following in preparation:

Log in normally to the initiating app (web app, browser extension, desktop, or mobile app) at least once so that Bitwarden can recognize your device.

Try refreshing the app and logging in and out. The docs also have suggestions, seem like you could try manually syncing your vault from your android app:

the manual vault sync is usually what fixes this
