🔔 Notices, activity and phone notifications in Rocket Crew
The game goes on without you: works finish, visits arrive and production builds up. Rocket Crew tells you in three ways, depending on whether you are in or out.
With the game open
- Instant notices, without reloading: work finished, new visit, new worker and hangar full. They are shown for a few seconds over the scene, with their sound, and are closed by tapping them.
- Visits in a row are grouped. If several arrive less than 10 seconds apart, the same notice counts them: “37 new visits: +370 coins”.
- The Activity tab gathers what happened over the last 2 days, from newest to oldest. The number of unread notifications appears on the button and in the title of the browser tab.
When you come back
If something has happened since last time, you see a “While you were away” summary with the visits, the pending coins, the works finished, the new workers and the friend requests. Each thing is counted only once. What happened more than 30 days ago is no longer counted.
Phone notifications
For when the game is closed, turn them on in the Profile menu with Phone notifications. The browser will ask for permission at that moment, never when the page loads. You get:
- Work finished, hangar full, new worker, friend request and friendship accepted. Not visits, because there would be too many.
- Research finished, when your worker comes back from the laboratory.
- Production ready, when your workers’ production is waiting to be collected. Since it is ready at midnight UTC, this notice waits for a sensible hour: it only goes out between 10:00 and 21:00 your local time, at most once a day. If three days go by without you collecting, it stops until you do again.
- Take-off and landing of your trip to the Moon.
- They are written in the language of your account.
- They are not sent if you have the game open on some device: you already see it inside.
- At most one notification of each kind is sent every 5 minutes. You can use up to 10 devices, and when you log out the device stops receiving them.
- On iPhone they only work with the game installed on the home screen (iOS 16.4 or later).
Installing the game as an app
There is nothing to download from any store, but you can install it from the browser itself, on a phone or a computer: it opens in its own window with its icon, and it is what makes notifications work on iPhone.
💡 Turn on the phone notifications: that way you know when a work finishes or when there is production to collect without having to watch the clock (the game clock).
