## About the Web Push API {#about}
|
||
|
||
Mastodon natively supports the [Web Push API](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Push_API). You can utilize the same mechanisms for your native app. It requires running a proxy server that connects to Android’s and Apple’s proprietary notification gateways. However, the proxy server does not have access to the contents of the notifications. For a reference, see [Mozilla’s web push server](https://github.com/mozilla-services/autopush), or more practically, see:
