Choose which notifications you get

You decide which kinds of push notification reach your devices. Your choices belong to your account, so they apply on every device you sign in on.

  1. Open the menu and tap Settings. From your notifications, you can also tap the Settings link at the top.
  2. Scroll to Push Notifications.
  3. Turn each switch on or off. The change is saved as you make it.
Switch Notifications about
Documents A document you can open being added, shared with you or deleted
Markups New Freehand drawings and Shape markups, and Notes added or changed
New chat message Messages in your conversations
New Projects Being added to a project or removed from one, and people leaving one
Task Messages Comments on task lists
Task reminders Your tasks due tomorrow, and due today
Tasks Tasks assigned to you, sent in for your review, or approved
Updated plans Sheets added, changed or deleted

Markups turns Freehand, Notes and Shape on or off together. With Markups off, you can turn any of the three back on by itself.

  • Mentions always get through. With New chat message off, a message that mentions you still sends a notification, as it does in a muted conversation.
  • Turned off means no push, not no record: the notification is still in your notifications. Task reminders is the exception: turned off, no reminders are made at all.
  • Task reminders go out once a day, in the morning, US Central time. A task waiting for review, or with no due date, has none.
  • One conversation only? Mute it instead: see Mute, delete and search conversations.
  • Nothing arriving at all? Your device may not allow ProPlans to send notifications: see Push notifications.
  • Offline, the switches still move, and the change is sent once you are back online.
