How do community notifications work?

Community Notifications

When a member of your community posts an alert, you receive a notification — but only if you are subscribed to the relevant topic.

How It Works

1. A community member creates an alert (e.g., "Lost dog near the park")
2. The alert is tagged with a topic (e.g., "Missing Pets")
3. All members subscribed to that topic in the community receive a notification

Notification Channels

• In-app: Alerts appear in your notification bell
• Email: Important alerts may also be sent to your email, depending on your notification settings

Managing Notifications

You can control notifications by:

• Subscribing or unsubscribing from specific topics within each community
• Adjusting your notification preferences in your account settings
• Leaving a community to stop all notifications from it
