Overview

Notifications keep you in the loop without forcing you to log in every day. They are fully optional and configurable.

What you can receive

  • Daily reminder — a gentle nudge to log a record (students).
  • Weekly summary — a Friday email with the week at a glance (all roles).
  • Teacher feedback — when a teacher leaves a note on a record.
  • Invitation accepted — when someone you invited completes sign-up (admins, teachers).
  • Capacity warnings — when a program / class is approaching its cap (admins).
  • Inactivity alerts — when a student hasn't logged in several days (parents, teachers).

Changing your preferences

From Settings → Notifications, toggle each one on or off and pick the channel:

  • Email — sent to your account address.
  • In-app — appears in the bell icon at the top.

Email frequency

To avoid spam, similar emails are batched. Daily reminders are at most once per day; weekly summaries arrive once per week.

Not receiving notifications

  1. Confirm they're enabled in Settings → Notifications.
  2. Check your spam folder.
  3. Add [email protected] to your contacts.
  4. If still missing, contact
