 Do you confirm using popups, or do you keep nsec.app tab open? Popups should show the app's domain name, not just npub, you wouldn't have to edit the name manually.

 I was scared from the popups on my laptop.
I kept nsec.app opened in my iPhone (I actually need to restart it to see the permission request).
The popups seemed to want me to enter the passphrase so it could down the main nsec to my laptop - which is NOT what I want.

 Yeah well, popups expect that you're okay with downloading the key on that device :(

 The UI should be more clear about that.
Anyways, do you know why the initial permission requests were a little buggy and I had to restart the nsec.app?
The push-notification permissions are on, but I wouldn’t trust that mechanism (I have a little experience with app development). If nsec.app is open in the foreground, it should always wait for events via nostr websockets - maybe even allow to connect to more than one (in addition to relay.nsec.app).

 Not sure why you had to restart, it does monitor requests in real time and should show the popup when in the foreground. Do you still have to restart?

 Once I approved everything I no longer had to restart the app.

 Both, but I was also testing with a node.js sample app I made. Had to add a name on that one.
