The “third-party app notifications” or “notifications from other apps in Visualfy” permission is an Android-only permission used by Third-Party Apps and the Visualfy Places accessible SMS alert.
It allows the Visualfy app to read notifications from other apps. When another app creates a notification, Visualfy lights up the locked phone screen in color to alert the user.
To enable this permission:
Third-Party Apps #
- Tap the “+” button in “Third-party apps” in “Visualfy Mobile”.
- Tap “Enable”.
- Notification access for Visualfy is now enabled.
Accessible SMS alert #
- If you have not granted this permission before, the app will ask you to enable it when you subscribe to an accessible building that has this alert.

NOTE: if this permission is not enabled, you cannot create any Third-Party App alerts in Visualfy.
