# Getting started with ilert mobile app

With the ilert mobile app, you can take full control of your incident response wherever you are: view and act on alerts (accept, resolve, escalate), manage incidents, check on-call schedules and escalation policies, review call flow logs, and oversee maintenance windows, heartbeat checks, service uptime, and status pages—all from a single, intuitive interface. The mobile app empowers you to take the first critical steps toward incident response and remediation on the go, ensuring you’re always ready to act.

## Enable push notifications

You can turn on push notifications in two ways:

1. **Notification screens**\
   Enable immediately after your first login using the in-app onboarding screens.
2. **Manual settings**\
   If you skipped the cards, enable notifications via the app’s Settings menu later.

## Notification s**creens**

After your first login, you’ll see these screens. They aim to help you set up the push notifications. Swipe **left** or **right** to navigate between them, or tap **Not Now** to skip all.
