the seeker is notified of every new or changed offer
By clicking the notification, the service seeker is taken to the detail view of the request, with the replies

Web-push notifications need to get built into the app so that it can always receive push messages when a backend-process notices that

a request has been answered ( aka a new proposal arrived ) ( boardwalk sprint 2 )
a proposal has been accepted or rejected ( boardwalk sprint 3 )

I think the tasks for this are:

[ ] Integrate web push registration in the service worker of the app
[ ] Create a sample backed script that receives the subscriptions and sends a sample push message to a device
[ ] handle the wake-up of the app
[ ] Change the state of the reply ( redux )

On which screen do you think the user should be prompted to accept notifications?, I think It's common for this to be done on a settings page where the user would specify what what actions will trigger a notification.

I feel notifications should be

Relevant
Timely
Requested

In profile we can put any type of preferences/settings, there just weren't any so far. But you feel a user should be able to turn the notifications off if he wants, eventhough they will be received in the app only?

In the browser notifications are off by default, the user has to opt in. We need a good point that makes sense, to ask the user for this permission. We also need to be clear when we will send them notifications, is it just when this request is answered?

Maybe when the user posts the request we ask them for permission to send notifications related to just this request, then in preferences/settings we let them turn this off?

If they make another request we can ask them again if we can enable notifications for just that request?

Maybe it's ok to ask if it's ok to send notifications for all requests? and again let them turn it off in preferences/settings??

Does this need to be reflected in the privacy policy?

Just to be clear, we are talking about IN the app, right? Not like the 'phone-notifications', right? We are talking about in the app, people getting a little badge next to their name when they get a new notification somewhere, right?

In my opinion, this is just a functionality of the app which is default, with no option to turn it off. A lot of logic off what's happening in the runs 'over notifications', for example if you are involved in a deal...

IMO - the kind of notifications ( = answers to real-life service requests ) justify sending notifications for all your requests ( or answers )
