What Push Alerts Show
Each push notification on your phone shows:
- The event type (e.g. Login, Unlock, Remote Login)
- The Windows username
- The date, time, and IP address of the event
- The risk level (Low / Medium / High)
Tapping the notification opens the mobile app, where you can view the full event history synced from your PC.
Viewing History in the Mobile App
The mobile app lets you browse your PC’s login event history on your phone. Tap Sync in the app to pull the latest events from your PC. Your login history is synced securely and is not stored on any external server.
Tips
- Allow notifications for the Login AlertX app in your phone’s settings, or alerts may not appear.
- If you get a new phone, pair it and remove the old device from the Linked Devices list to free up a slot.
- Push notifications and WhatsApp can be used at the same time for redundant coverage.
