Frequently Asked Questions
Can I send a notification to everyone at once?
Yes. On the Select Recipients screen, tap Select All to check every worker in the list at once.
What does skipping the site selection do?
Tapping Skip means the notification is not scoped to a specific site. The recipient list on the next screen will show all workers across your company rather than just those assigned to a particular site.
What is the Notification Type field for?
Notification Type categorises the message, such as a safety alert, general announcement, or other type configured by your admin. It is required before you can send.
Can I attach an image to the notification?
Yes. Tap the image icon in the top right of the compose screen (next to the recipient avatars) to attach a photo.
Where do sent notifications appear?
Sent notifications appear in the recipient's Inbox. You can also view sent messages from your own Inbox.
