Notification center in Freelo (bell icon) works on similar basis as for example on Facebook. When you have some new notifications there is red badge with number.
You can mark them as read or unread in case you want to get back to it later. Unread notification is yellow.
Click eye icon to mark the notification as read (white) or unread (yellow).
Each notification has three-dot menu where you can set:
- Task or subtask following
- Task or subtask reminder
- Add task or subtask to My task priorities
Check out browser push notifications and our new PWA app. It helps to stay tuned all the time!
When do you get notifications
- When someone adds you as task or subtask solver.
- When someone comments a task you created.
- When someone updates a task you created (changes due date or solver).
- When someone comments a task you are following.
- When someone mentions you in a comment.
- When you are invited to project.
- When you are appointed Project manager or Admin.
- When you are marked as sub/task follower.
Some people prefer to work within e-mail. In such cases we would recommend to set up e-mail notifications. They “copy” Freelo notifications but you can select which ones you want in Settings.
When do you become sub/task follower
You automatically become task and subtask follower when you:
- Comment a task or subtask.
- Someone assignes you a task or subtask.
- When someone adds you as a follower.
- When you click Start following or Follow.
