Supports

Monitor notification volume to ensure it's manageable.

Loud and Clear: Unmuting Channels

The /v2/channels/{id}/unmute endpoint restores the notification privileges for a channel. This corresponds to the "Unmute" action in the mobile app.

🔊 Restoring Priority

When you unmute a channel, you are elevating its status in the user's perception.

Behavior Changes:

Push Notifications: The connected phone will now vibrate/ring for every new post.
Badge Count: New messages will increment the unread counter.
Visibility: The channel will likely move to the top of the "Updates" list when new content arrives.

💡 Strategic Usage

1. The "VIP" Subscription

If your application allows users to follow many topics, you might offer a "VIP Alert" feature.

Workflow:
1. User follows 50 channels (all muted by default or by script).
2. User marks "Breaking News" as a Priority in your UI.
3. Your backend calls /unmute specifically for that channel.
4. Result: The user gets buzzes only for what matters most, while still having access to the broad feed of other data.
