Good to read that you guys are working on a fix. I’m also having a desktop notification issue: desktop notifications are not working - every site keeps asking over and over to ‘allow’ them (which I do), then asks again. I go to brave://settings/content/notifications (there’s no link in settings to there !?) and confirm that the sites are allowed - or add them manually if they’re not. Still, sites like Yahoo, Google Mail, Calendar, Drive, WhatsApp Web, etc. are all asking to allow desktop notifications even if I already accepted and allowed them multiple times in Brave. ---

@Patbouvry, > [@Patbouvry](#): > > I go to brave://settings/content/notifications (there’s no link in settings to there !?) `Settings --> Additional --> Privacy/Security --> Site Settings --> Notifications` Note that when you add sites manually, you must add them in the following format (using Community as an example): `https://community.brave.app:443` ---

Like this? This is what is already there. Still, sites keep asking for permission to allow desktop notifications. ![Capture](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/brave/original/3X/6/a/6a07dd34e396176d8e820d823580ec7761dd2d14.png) Thanks for the notification route in Settings. I’m giving up on Brave and returning to Chrome - too many bugs (bookmarks not synched, desktop notifications not working, downloads interrupted mid-way…). I’ll try again in a few months. ---
