Delayed App Ker-Chings

[TheWoollyDesignCoUK]

Is anyone else experiencing this? I get  a sale, no 'sound' notification although I do get the sales email, then a few hours later the ker-ching sounds on my phone with no order, then I realise it must be the one from a few hours earlier catching up. Very frustrating and confusing!

@TheWoollyDesignCoUK: This forum is full of threads and posts about issues with app (and eMail) notifications. Many of these issues often seem to be related to how and when the Etsy Apps synchronize, or don't.

The consensus is that a seller needs to check their shop for messages and orders at least daily via a browser until these issues are resolved.

I haven't had a cha ching ing a year or 2. I quit trying to solve it. Some say to reinstall the app and make sure your device notifications haven't changed with an update. Besides I keep my phone on the windowsill next to my bed at night and those 2 am cha-chings would make me jump!

@hopeandjoystudios  I keep my phone on sleep mode 9 pm - 6 am.

Lol..that cuts the whole purpose of keeping my phone near in case there is a family emergency.  My husband keeps his phone downstairs at night. God forbid I was out and had an issue..no contacting him! I'd  have to call my kids or walk.

This has happened to me in the past.  I figure it has something to do with my internet.  Like when you get a message someone sent you hours earlier.
