[2021] Fixing Over-Eager Push Notifications

Hey all,

We’re aware of an issue where people playing on iOS devices are being prompted to allow push notifications every time they open the app. This is not intended, and is being caused by push notifications being enabled within the Hearthstone client, but disabled on your device. We’re working on a fix that we plan to implement in our next big patch.

In the meantime, we have a workaround to share with you all:

1. Open Hearthstone on your iOS device
2. Press the settings cog in the top right
3. Press “Options”
4. In the bottom portion of that menu, under “Other,” press “Privacy”
5. Press “Privacy Settings”
6. Uncheck the box that reads “Enable push notifications”

Then click “Done” and you should be set.

Hey there, this was fixed in Tuesday’s 21.3 patch (except for in the CN region, where the fix is going live in the next big patch). Once you update to 21.3, your settings should be saved.

Hey there, the “this” I was referring to in this reply was the other complaint that was raised in response to this thread (chat settings not being saved). What you’re talking about (the main issue that this thread was created about) is still scheduled to be fixed in the next patch, like stated above. You can do the workaround listed in the original post in the meantime.

I don’t know about the forum avatars, but I’ll float the ask and see what happens. As for potential future premade decks, I can’t speak on anything that hasn’t been announced, so you’ll have to keep an eye out for a possible official announce!
