This is a modern technology term that became prevalent with smartphone adoption in the 2010s. Both Brazilian Portuguese and North American English communities use 'push notification' as a loanword from English technology terminology, though Portuguese translations exist. In Brazil, users commonly adjust these settings in smartphone menus, and the phrase is widely understood among tech-savvy populations. In the USA, push notifications are a standard feature of mobile communication, and managing notification permissions is a routine part of app usage.
