Email Digests

The email digest is a summary of everything in your notification center that you haven't read yet, so you can catch up without opening tour-flow. It covers all your unread notifications and is only sent when there's something new.

Digest Frequency

The only digest setting is how often it arrives:

FrequencyDescription
Every 4 hoursFrequent updates for active tours
Every 6 hoursBalanced frequency
Every 12 hoursTwice a day
DailyOnce-a-day summary
NeverNo summary emails

Choosing Never only stops the digest. Your instant notifications keep working as set below.

Instant Notifications

Instant notifications reach you the moment something happens. For each notification type you choose the channels:

  • Email: an email right away (where available)
  • Browser: a notification on your computer
  • Mobile app: a push notification on your phone

Types are grouped (chat, crew messages, crew requests, booklets, planning, projects, workspace and system) in sections you can expand. Everything is on by default, and everything still lands in your notification center, whatever you choose.

Some emails are always sent because they carry information you shouldn't miss: crew requests and changes to them, booklets shared with you, and project or workspace invitations. They're marked with an info icon instead of a checkbox.

Where to Find the Settings

  • Web: open Settings and scroll to Notifications. The digest frequency and the instant notification matrix are both there.
  • Mobile app: open Settings and tap Notification channels.
  • Verified crew: on the web, click your email address on the My Booklets page. In the app, open Settings and tap Notification channels.
