🐞 Describe the bug

I am experimenting with ntfy and Gotify. In Gotify, I link all Applications (topics) to a single account, allowing me to see all alerts on all devices at once.
I am trying to achieve the same with the ntfy App. This works perfectly in the browser version. I log in as "admin" and can see all topics. However, I can't get this to work in the app.
The app does have a login function, but it doesn't seem to serve this purpose. I still need to manually subscribe to topics.
It's strange that the website and the app behave differently.

💻 Components impacted

ntfy server: :v2.11.0
Android app: 1.16.0

Topic subscriptions are only "synced" between instances of the web app right now. We haven't added the subscription sync to the Android app yet. You could install the PWA on your phone and the topics would sync there

Is there any updates for this function?
