Notifications
Notifications keep you informed about project activity — task assignments, comments, status changes, and team updates. They arrive in real time and link directly to the related task.
The Problem This Solves
When teammates assign tasks, move cards, or post comments, you need to know about it — especially when you are away from your desk. Without mobile notifications, important updates wait in your web inbox until your next login.
What You Are Looking At
Open the drawer menu and tap Notifications. The notification screen groups items into four time-based sections:
- Today — activity from today
- Yesterday — activity from yesterday
- This Week — activity from the current week
- Older — everything before this week
Each notification shows:
- Activity description (e.g., "John assigned you to Deploy API")
- Timestamp
- Unread indicator (if not yet seen)
Viewing Notifications
Scroll through the notification timeline. Notifications load with infinite scroll — keep scrolling to see older activity.
Unread Indicators
Unread notifications display a visual badge. Once you view a notification, the unread indicator clears.
Navigate to Task
Tap any notification to navigate directly to the related task. The task detail screen opens with full context.
Real-Time Delivery
Notifications arrive via WebSocket (Laravel Reverb) in real time. When a teammate performs an action that affects you:
- The server broadcasts the notification
- Your phone receives it instantly via the WebSocket connection
- The notification appears in your list without refreshing
Notification Types
Notifications cover the main project activities:
- Task assigned to you
- Task status changed
- Comment added to your task
- Task created in your project
- Timer events on your tasks
- Team and project updates
Pro Tips (Once You Are Comfortable)
- Notifications as daily review: Open notifications at the start and end of your day to catch up on team activity.
- Tap to act: Do not just read notifications — tap them to go directly to the task and take action.
- Pull to refresh: If you suspect you missed a notification, pull down to force a reload.
Permissions
Notifications follow your project access permissions:
- You only receive notifications for projects you have access to
- Private project notifications only reach invited members
- Notification types depend on your role and involvement in tasks
