Managing notifications

Control the bell, push notifications, and what you get pinged about.

Notifications keep you posted when something happens around your work — without any noise you didn't ask for.

What you'll be notified about

  • 💬 Someone comments on your post.
  • ⚖️ Someone responds to your debate.
  • 💡 A circle member suggests publishing your work.
  • 👥 Someone joins your circle.
  • 📝 A new post appears in one of your circles.
  • 🔗 A new connection is drawn on one of your verses.

Where to find them

1
The 🔔 bell in the sidebar shows an unread count. On mobile, a dot appears on the Library icon.
2
Open Notifications to see everything grouped by Today, This Week, and Older. Opening the page marks them as read.

Push notifications

House-tops can also send push notifications to your device so you're alerted even when the app is closed.

1
Your browser or device will ask permission to send notifications the first time.
2
Allow it to receive pushes; you can revoke the permission in your browser or system settings at any time.
📱 Push works best when House-tops is installed as an app (PWA) from your browser's "Add to Home Screen" / "Install" option.
