How to use notifications
A notification may be sent to your device to alert you of some important information, such as a weather emergency. To receive a notification to your device, the app must allow notifications in Settings and you must be logged into the app. Notifications only function with iOS and Android devices. Browser/desktop apps do not have notification support.
Notifications function a bit differently depending on if the app is open, closed, or active in the background.
App is Closed or Active in the Background
When the app is closed or active in the background and a notification is sent that doesn’t require a response, click the notification, or open the app to view a toast message in the middle of your screen. If a response is requested, when you click the notification or open the app the notification and its responses appear at the bottom of your screen. You need to respond to the notification before you can continue using the app.
App is Open
When the app is open and a notification is sent that doesn’t require a response, a toast message with the notification will appear in the middle of your screen. If a response is requested, the notification and its responses appear at the bottom of your screen.
You need to respond to the notification before you can continue using the app.
If a notification is sent that doesn’t require your response, a toast message will appear in the middle of the screen that you will need to dismiss in order to continue working. If you aren’t in the app the toast will appear when you open the app.
