Local Notifications: Difference between revisions

Revision as of 12:37, 6 July 2026

EventR Team can send a notification when an activity is about to start. The schedule for this lives under Account, Settings, Notifications.

Turn notifications on per itinerary. Once on, you can narrow what triggers a notification:

section (flights, stays, transport, activities, parking, hire cars): toggle each on or off
category: your org's categories, but only the ones actually used in that itinerary show up
public items: whether items set to public visibility should appear, even if you aren't attached

EventR needs OS-level permission to send notifications. If that permission's been denied, the Settings page shows an inline prompt linking straight to your device's notification settings.

With notifications on, you get a banner when each matching event starts. Flights and transport also get an arrival banner; check-ins get one at check-in time, or 15 minutes before start if no check-in time is set.

To see what's actually queued, go to Account, Settings, Notifications, Pending. It lists every notification currently scheduled on the device: title, body, and time. Or a "nothing scheduled" message if the list is empty.
