Turnero can send desktop push notifications to keep you informed of appointment activity — even when the app is in the background. Notifications are role-specific: doctors are alerted when a new appointment is booked for them, while front-desk staff receive updates when the schedule changes.

​
What Triggers a Notification

Turnero sends a push notification based on your role when specific events occur: Doctors (Medico)
  • A new appointment is scheduled for your profile — the notification includes your name, a short message, and the appointment date.
Front-desk staff (Ingreso)
  • An existing appointment is edited and saved.
  • A doctor marks a patient as arrived.
  • An appointment is deleted.
Doctors are not notified when a patient is marked as arrived — that update goes to front-desk staff, who can track patient arrivals in real time on the appointment table.

​
Enabling Notifications

1

Install or open Turnero

Install Turnero as a PWA (see PWA Installation) or open it in a supported browser.
2

Allow notification permissions

When prompted by the browser, click Allow to grant notification permissions for Turnero.
3

Re-enable if you missed the prompt

If you dismissed the initial prompt, go to your browser’s site settings for Turnero and set Notifications to Allow.
4

Confirm notifications are active

Notifications are now active — you’ll receive alerts even when Turnero is minimized or running in the background.

​
Managing Notification Permissions

If you need to change your notification settings after the initial setup, use the instructions for your platform:
  • Chrome / Edge (desktop): Click the padlock icon in the address bar → Notifications → Allow.
  • Android Chrome: Go to Settings → Site Settings → Notifications, find Turnero in the list, and set it to Allow.
  • iOS Safari: iOS does not support push notifications for PWAs on older versions. Update to iOS 16.4 or later for notification support.
If you accidentally blocked notifications, you must manually re-enable them in your browser or device settings. Turnero cannot override a blocked permission.
Doctors find notifications most useful during busy clinic days — you know the moment a new appointment is booked for you without needing to check the schedule manually.
