Cannot get the Chrome subscription pop-up again after dismissing it

Question:

I cannot get the Chrome subscription pop-up again after dismissing it. Does Chrome have a mechanism that stops showing the subscription prompt to recurring visitors who ignore it?

Answer:

Yes. Chrome deliberately suppresses notification permission prompts, and this is controlled entirely by the browser — not by Pushwoosh. There are several mechanisms:

• Permission embargo. If a user repeatedly dismisses your permission request, Chrome stops showing it for that site for a period of time (about a week) to prevent users from being spammed with permission requests.
• Quieter permission UI (Chrome 80 and newer). For sites that auto-prompt on page load or that have a very low opt-in rate, Chrome replaces the dialog with a small bell icon in the address bar, so the prompt looks like it never appeared.
• Automatic permission revocation. Chrome also removes notification permission from sites the user has not interacted with recently when those sites send a high volume of notifications.

To test again on your own machine, reset the site's notification permission: click the icon to the left of the address bar → Site settings → set Notifications back to Ask, or clear the site data.

To reduce the chance of being throttled, do not request permission on page load. Show your own pre-prompt first and call Pushwoosh.subscribe() only in response to a deliberate user action.
