# Notifications and launch reminders

Learn how to turn push notifications on or off and change browser permissions. Track launch dates and set a reminder for your chosen server in your own calendar.

SRO.GG push notifications bring announcements to your browser. You do not need an account to subscribe; your permission and subscription apply to the browser you use.

This guide explains how to turn notifications on or off and keep track of server launches. The browser examples use Chrome on a computer. Menus may differ in other browsers or versions. The screenshots show the Turkish interface.

## 1. The notification banner

You may see an **Enable push notifications** banner at the top of the page. It appears if your browser supports notifications, you have not subscribed, and you have not closed the banner during the current tab session.

The banner mentions giveaways, exclusive events and special rewards. If you do not want notifications, use the **X** at the top right to close it. The banner stays closed for that tab session. Your browser’s notification permission does not change.

## 2. Allowing notifications

Click anywhere on the banner except the X. If your browser asks for permission, allow notifications. Once setup succeeds, **Push notifications enabled successfully!** appears and the banner closes.

If no permission prompt appears, check Chrome's **Settings**, **Privacy and security**, **Site Settings**, then **Notifications**. The example below allows sites to ask for notification permission. This setting lets sites request your permission; it does not create an SRO.GG subscription on its own.

![Chrome’s notification settings show the option allowing sites to ask for permission selected.](https://bucket.sro.gg/11092026/ffb5c9c9-0992-41b6-8585-b1c0784c95cc.webp)

If you previously blocked SRO.GG, check the notification permission for SRO.GG too. If you see **Push notification permission denied**, follow the instructions in step four, then return to SRO.GG and try the banner again. If setup still fails after permission is granted, the subscription may not have been created.

## 3. Notifications from SRO.GG

SRO.GG administrators can send general announcements or schedule them for later. The giveaways, events and rewards mentioned in the banner are examples of announcement topics. Do not assume that every event, comment, like or server opening triggers an automatic notification.

Clicking a notification opens the announcement's link. Allowing notifications does not set a launch reminder for a particular server.

## 4. Turning notifications off or back on

In Chrome's site settings for **sro.gg**, find **Notifications**. While visiting SRO.GG, you can reach site settings through the site information menu beside the address bar. The example below shows **Ask (default)**.

![Chrome’s site settings show notification permission set to Ask by default.](https://bucket.sro.gg/11092026/02b77400-dc50-4f38-bfcc-1aadebf9786a.webp)

- **Block:** Stops SRO.GG notifications in this browser.
- **Allow:** Permits SRO.GG to display notifications. If you have not subscribed before, return to the site and finish subscribing through the banner.

Closing the banner with X does not turn off notification permission you already granted. Check permissions separately if you also use another device or browser.

## 5. The launch calendar

![The header shows the Upcoming Servers link with a calendar icon.](https://bucket.sro.gg/11092026/5aba953e-97bc-4af2-8299-5623642d875b.webp)SRO.GG does not currently have a working **Remind me** feature that alerts you when a particular server launches. Use **Upcoming Servers** in the top menu to open the list grouped by day. We suggest checking it regularly for openings that interest you. For a closer look at the list, read [Tracking upcoming servers](https://sro.gg/en/guide/following-upcoming-servers).

## 6. Setting your own calendar reminder

Let's use the **Launch Date** field on Hitsro's page as an example. The screenshot shows **25 September 2026 at 21:00**. This is a past date, included to show where the information appears.

![Hitsro’s Launch Date field shows both the date and time.](https://bucket.sro.gg/11092026/419b705b-5a7a-4e7b-9b4d-12399e9de1bf.webp)

If a future beta date has been added, **Beta Date** also appears. Dates and times on the server page use the time zone selected for that server. Before adding an opening to your own calendar, confirm the date, time and time zone in the server’s announcement.

You can add the server page's link to an event in your own calendar and choose a reminder time that suits you. Check the server page and the server's own announcements again before launch.
