Finding your notification settings
Everyone's different when it comes to notifications. Some people like to know everything instantly, while others prefer to check in on their own time. My Family Hub lets you customize what you're notified about and how.
How to manage notifications
- Go to your account settings
- Find "Notifications" or "Notification preferences"
- You'll see a list of notification types
- Toggle each type on or off based on your preference
- Save your preferences
Types of notifications you can control
Chore notifications – Get alerted when chores are assigned, due, overdue, or completed
Event notifications – Reminders for family events and calendar items
Reward notifications – Updates about points, badges, and reward redemptions
Family updates – When someone new joins, or family settings change
Messages – Comments, replies, or family messages in the app
Notification delivery options
Push notifications – Instant alerts on your phone
Email notifications – Summary emails at times you choose (daily, weekly)
In-app only – See updates only when you open the app
Off – Don't send notifications for this type
Fine-tuning your preferences
You can often set different preferences for different notification types. For instance, you might want instant push notifications for overdue chores but only a weekly email summary of completed tasks. Get as specific as you need to feel comfortable!
Pro tip: Disable non-urgent notifications during busy times. You can always turn them back on later. There's nothing wrong with turning off notifications for a week if you're on holiday!
