Each kind of message can reach you by email, by a push notification on your phone or computer, or both. Once notifications are on for your phone, we send most things as push and not as email, unless you choose email or both for a kind of message. Without a phone, email is the start. Money, tickets and invites always come by email too, whatever you pick. Email costs ImprovTeam money to send; push notifications and your inbox do not.

On the same page you choose which of your groups may email you at all.

Email, push or both

  1. 1

    Open Settings, then Notifications. Open Notifications

  2. 2

    To use push, tap Turn on notifications under Turn on push on this device, and allow notifications when your browser asks.

  3. 3

    Under What to send, each row offers Email, Push or Email and push. A row you have not touched says Push, because you have the app. Pick another one for New events and invites, Reminders and nudges, Waitlist, Polls and the rest, and your choice stays until you change it.

    Money, Tickets and shows and Invites to groups only offer Email or Email and push, so nobody misses what they owe, a ticket or an invite. Sign-in codes and account notices always come by email. Account security always comes by email and push and cannot be changed.
