Notifications (Android)

Grid Getter sends push notifications for automation events, system alerts, and subscription updates. The Notifications screen is your in-app log of everything that’s been sent.

Open it from the drawer (☰ → Notifications).

Viewing notifications

Section titled “Viewing notifications”

Notifications are listed in reverse chronological order. Each card shows:

  • Date and time the notification was sent
  • Title (if present)
  • Message body

Scroll to the bottom of the list to load older notifications — the screen loads more automatically as you reach the end.

Time range filter

Section titled “Time range filter”

Use the filter chips to narrow the list:

  • Today
  • Last 7 Days
  • Last 30 Days
  • All time

Tap a chip to reload.

Multiple sites

Section titled “Multiple sites”

If your account has more than one Tesla site, a site selector appears below the header. Tap the dropdown to switch sites. Notifications are filtered to the selected site.

Push notification channels

Section titled “Push notification channels”

Android delivers Grid Getter push notifications through four channels. You can control each channel independently in Android Settings → Apps → Grid Getter → Notifications.

ChannelWhat it sendsPriority
Grid Getter NotificationsGeneral app notificationsHigh
Automation AlertsAlerts triggered by automation rulesHigh
System AlertsImportant system and error alertsHigh
Subscription UpdatesBilling and plan change confirmationsDefault

To silence a specific channel without turning off all notifications:

  1. Go to Android Settings → Apps → Grid Getter → Notifications.
  2. Tap the channel you want to mute.
  3. Toggle it off or reduce its importance.

Your report is ready

Section titled “Your report is ready”

Two notifications are about your report:

  • Your report is ready, when your first report arrives after onboarding
  • A follow-up report, about a week later

Tapping either one opens that report in the app, for the site it’s about.

Notification actions

Section titled “Notification actions”

Some notifications carry buttons you can act on without opening the app.

Pre-Peak Charge started tells you when the automation has started charging from the grid on its own, and carries a Cancel button. Tap it to stop the charge immediately and put your battery back to its normal settings. Canceling also skips the rest of that day. A charge that starts in the last half hour before peak arrives without the button. Either way, you can do the same from Cancel charge on the Pre-Peak Charge card on the Live Dashboard. Pre-Peak Charge is in early access, so the card and these notifications only appear on sites it’s been turned on for. See Pre-Peak Charge.

Some notifications, like the alert-frequency prompt, still ask you a question. Their buttons sit in the expanded notification, so pull down the shade or expand the card to see them. A plain tap opens the app and shows the same choices in a dialog, so either gesture gets you there. Each prompt has a deadline, and tapping a button after it passes only tells you the prompt expired.

If push alerts stop arriving

Section titled “If push alerts stop arriving”

Grid Getter monitors whether your device token is still valid. If a notification can’t be delivered — because you switched devices, reinstalled the app, or the SNS endpoint was disabled — Grid Getter removes the stale token and sends you an email with subject “Push alerts need attention.”

To restore push notifications, open the Grid Getter app. Your device re-registers automatically.

If push notifications aren’t arriving for another reason:

  1. Go to Android Settings → Apps → Grid Getter → Notifications.
  2. Confirm Allow notifications is on.
  3. Check that the relevant channel (e.g., Automation Alerts) is enabled.

See Troubleshooting for more notification help.
