Notification settings
Choose what you hear about and where: in-app, push, or email.
Notifications are tuned per category in Notification settings: invites, RSVP activity, messages, reminders, and the rest each have their own switch, and some add “Also email me” or “Also text me”. Push is turned on once for the device, and the category switches decide what reaches you there. Turn off what you don't want without going silent on what you do.
Push works in the Joinue app for iPhone and Android, or on the web once you've added Joinue to your phone's home screen. Either way, allow notifications when prompted.
Turned Joinue's notifications off in your phone's settings? In the app, an invite you haven't answered says "Notifications are off for Joinue", since you won't hear if that plan changes. Open Settings takes you to your phone's settings to turn them back on, the X hides it for that one invite, and Stop showing this ends it on that phone if you turned them off on purpose.
Texts are reserved for the plan-critical categories, like invites, reminders, time changes, and cancellations. Add and verify a phone number in Settings (US and Canadian numbers only) and those categories show an "Also text me" switch.
Quiet hours hold push overnight. It's off unless you turn it on, since your phone's own sleep focus already covers most of this and a lot of what Joinue sends is about tonight. Switch it on in Notification settings and pick a window: anything that arrives during it waits, then comes through together when the window ends. You can set different hours for Friday and Saturday nights.
Texts respect the same window, with one difference: a text that lands inside it is skipped rather than saved for the morning, so you don't wake up to a stack of them. The notification is still waiting in the app. Time-critical texts (a cancellation, a change of time or place) come through regardless.
For the in-the-moment version, Pause all sits just above quiet hours: hold everything for an hour, for eight hours, or until tomorrow. It lifts by itself, so a meeting or a movie doesn't cost you the rest of your week's notifications.
If you unsubscribed or replied STOP
Those are separate from the switches above, because you can do both from outside the app. If either is in effect, Notification settings says so at the top, and the email switches or the text switches below it can't reach you until it's lifted.
- Email: tap Turn emails back on, right there in the notice.
- Texts: reply START to the same number that texted you. That one can't be lifted from the app, because your phone network holds the block as well as Joinue does.
