You can change your notification settings to receive email and/or push notifications for your Showbie account.

Notification Preferences

Adjusting Your Notification Settings in Showbie

  1. Tap your name or profile picture in the bottom left corner on the iOS Showbie app. If you’re using the web version of Showbie, you’ll find it in the top right corner.

  2. Tap Preferences, and select a category.

  3. Tap the icons to choose any combination of Email or Push Notifications.

    1. The button in your notification settings will be white/unfilled if it's off and blue/filled if it's on.

For email notifications, make sure you have set the correct email address in your Showbie account. If not, you can change your email address.

Allow iOS Notifications on your Device

To get iOS push notifications from Showbie, you must allow notifications from Showbie on your device.

  2. Tap Showbie from the left menu

  3. Toggle Allow Notifications on

  4. Select how you would like to receive alerts on your device.

Custom Class Notifications

Notifications in Showbie can be adjusted so you can receive notifications from specific classes only. This can be helpful when you have a lot of classes set up or if you only want notifications for classes you want to watch out for.

Here's how it works:

  1. Start by going into any class you'd like

  2. Tap the wrench icon

  3. Tap Class Settings

  4. Open Notification Preferences

  5. You can change if you'd like emails or push notifications on mobile devices - blue means it's turned on!

Groups-wide Notifications

Editing your notifications from your profile settings means that you’ll receive notifications from all your groups.

  • Tap on your profile picture

  • Tap Notification Preferences

  • Go to Groups

  • Adjust your notifications by choosing whether you want to receive email or push notifications – blue means it’s turned on!

Individual Group Notifications

Adjusting specific group notifications means you’ll only get notifications from that specific group.

  • Go to the group you want notifications for

  • Tap on the Group Info icon

  • Tap Notification Preferences

  • You can choose whether to receive email and/or push notifications by tapping on each icon – blue means it’s turned on!

Progressive Web App (PWA) Notifications

If you're using the PWA, you may need to enable notifications on your device as well. In Showbie, you'll see a message similar to this prompting you to enable notifications:

Make sure you've enabled push notifications on your device to receive them from Showbie!
