😎 How to get Steemit NOTIFICATIONS!!!! (comment/upvote/reply)
I found a way to recieve notifications when someone upvotes you or comments on your post. It's an app in the play store called 'ESTEEM'. Ive only just started using it and so far I really like it. I now get a notification on my tablet/phone when anything happens on my steemit blog!...:D Click on the notification and it takes you into the app.
Only problem is the app is great for browsing & reading steemit posts & upvoting people. You can sort by trending..new.. etc. But I cant seem to pull up my own blog or see my comments/replies that I got notified for...lol. But the app is still great.
One of my favorite things about this app is the ability to bookmark!....yes I can bookmark posts that I dont know if I want to upvote/follow but want to read later. This feature is invaluable imo!
Now when I get a notification I just go to steemit via browser. At least I know pretty much real-time when something's happening on my posts!

Thank you!
thank you ; i looked for steemit app but just esteem app but not install it; now i know its usage
Yes. So far i love it! Especially the bookmark feature. Ty...:)
I did check out the app but after listening to John McAfee talk about crypto security. He mentioned that a cell phone was not secure because it wasn't designed to be a crypto wallet or to handle anything crypto. Here's the video I was talking about. I would think twice about using esteem because it's mobile. You really do have to be paranoid when it comes to crypto and/or security for that matter.
Thanks. I'll check this out. I use turbo vpn on my tablet. Would that make a differnce in security or no?
I wouldn't trust it lol
I listened to McAfee's video but still dont understand. It seems to me like he's talking about key loggers etc which you can be infected with by going to particular sites. So what would it matter whether you were accessing steemit through an app or through a browser? They'd still get your keys (screen snapshot) if infected..?
I use an app called pure vpn (free on google play store) on my tablet which is not connected to my printer..refridgerator..etc and i dont visit porn sites. I never trusted password managers but according to Forbes is good to use. https://www.forbes.com/sites/amadoudiallo/2014/08/06/three-ways-to-protect-yourself-from-hackers/#7d81a59e45bb
Plus I use Lookout mobile security (again free on google play) which I would hope would stop any attempted hack. Idk. I dont quite understand it all personally.
I think what he's talking about in that video is the lack of security on those devices as compared to a pc. Ultimately I think you'd want to have a pc behind a hardware firewall with security software and have the whole thing encrypted.
Oh. Well I only use my tablet anymore.
