It is saying that that those two components will only work if you do a preview or do a live test on a personal android device. It won’t work on ios or computer.

How are you testing? Thunkable Live on iOS?

I think, perhaps, neither the assistant nor push notifications work on web?

From my experience with `push notification` it works with Android APK download and in one or two cases worked for me with Thunkable Live on Android.

Yes, I’ve downloaded to iOS and used Thunkable Live on iOS and the Assistant component works. I think it should say “The Push Notification component can only be previewed on Android devices and neither the Push Notification or Assistant work on web preview” or something like that
