Hello!

I’m getting reports from users using the PWA on their desktop that every morning when they open the app they get the error that something went wrong and the app is in test mode.

Hey @EthosLuke

This error shows when the app is not live. Simply go to the Apps Settings and the first option should be **Live mode**

If you have done this already, please reach out to us via [support@noloco.io](mailto:support@noloco.io) with the app link so we can take a look at this for you.
