Ok, so I got a notification earlier saying all feeds were refreshed and no new episodes were available. So why did I get it out of the blue? Again, I stream all new episodes, and I'm set to automatically refresh every three hours. I'm just confused as to why I got this notification when I did... Do these occur when the app is running in the background or does it have to be closed? I read the help section, but I'm still trying to get the hang of it.
