This plugin allows you to explore the user's push notifications that are used for applications to inform about different types of updates.

You can view the following information received in notifications:

NOTE: If the notification text is long and does not fit the screen, it ends with "...". To view the full notification text, hover the mouse over the notification and full text will be displayed as a prompt.

 

All notifications are displayed in a grid. The most recent notifications are displayed on top.

The general information about notifications is displayed above the grid:

Records: total number of notifications

Most recent record: date and time when the most recent notification was received

Oldest record: date and time when the oldest notification was received
