Notifications

Choose what FamilyHub tells you about in Settings › Notifications.

In the app

The bell shows sync problems, reward requests waiting for an adult and pending invitations. The number counts only items that need you.

Browser notifications

Turn them on per category. Your browser asks for permission the first time.

Browser notifications are limited:

  • They arrive only while FamilyHub is open in a tab on that device.
  • They don't arrive if permission is blocked, the browser is closed, or the operating system limits background activity (common on phones).
  • Quiet hours hold reminders until they end.

If notifications are blocked, allow them in the browser's site settings for this address, then reload FamilyHub.

Email notifications aren't available yet.
