# Whip notifications and how to change them

> What Whip notifies you about — builds, likes, comments, milestones, and more — and how to change or turn off notification settings for push and email.

Whip keeps you posted through the **Activity** screen — tap the bell to see everything happening around you and your apps. You control it all in **Settings → Notifications**, where you can fine-tune push and email by category or switch them off entirely. Tap any notification to jump straight to whatever it's about.

## The Activity screen

Tap the bell (top of your Home screen) to open **Activity**. It groups everything into **New**, **This Week**, and **Earlier**. The bell itself shows a red dot when you have unread items. Tap a single notification to mark it read and jump to the thing it's about — an app, a profile, or a comment.

To clear everything at once, tap the bell inside Activity and confirm **Mark all read**.

## What Whip tells you about

Here's the full, friendly catalog:

<AccordionGroup>
  <Accordion title="Your builds" icon="hammer">
    When an app you're [building](/building/how-whip-builds-your-app) is ready,
    and if a build or edit ever runs into trouble so you can pick it back up.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="Social" icon="heart">
    Likes on your apps, comments, likes on your comments, [@mentions](/social/comments),
    new followers, when someone [remixes your app](/discover/remix-apps), when a
    remix of your app goes public, and when someone you follow publishes
    something new.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="Milestones" icon="party-popper">
    Little celebrations when your app hits a round number of saves or plays — at
    1, 5, 10, 25, 50, 100, 250, 500, and onward.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="Momentum" icon="trending-up">
    When your app starts trending, and when someone beats your score on an app's
    [leaderboard](/using/leaderboards).
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="Highlights and recaps" icon="calendar">
    **App of the Day** arrives at 10 AM your local time, and a **weekly recap**
    of how your apps did lands on Monday. Now and then you might get a gentle
    "we miss you" nudge if you've been away.
  </Accordion>
</AccordionGroup>

## Change your notification settings

Open **Settings → Notifications** to control everything. There's a master switch for push and a master switch for email, plus per-category toggles under each.

<Tabs>
  <Tab title="Push">
    Master toggle: **All push notifications**. Below it:

    * **App updates** — build and edit progress.
    * **Social** — likes, comments, follows, and remixes.
    * **Daily** — highlights like App of the Day.
    * **Weekly recap** — your weekly stats summary.
    * **Re-engagement** — nudges and win-backs.
    * **Product updates** — feature drops and news.
  </Tab>

  <Tab title="Email">
    Master toggle: **All emails**. Below it:

    * **Weekly recap** — your week in numbers.
    * **Win-back** — a note when you've been away a while.
    * **Product updates** — what's new on Whip.
  </Tab>
</Tabs>

A category toggle is grayed out while its master switch is off. Turn the master switch back on to adjust individual categories again.

<Note>
  Sign-in and account emails — things like your verification code or an
  account-deletion confirmation — always send, even with email turned off. These
  keep your account working and secure, so they're not part of the toggles.
</Note>

## Common questions

<AccordionGroup>
  <Accordion title="How do I turn off all notifications?" icon="bell-off">
    Flip the master **All push notifications** switch off in **Settings →
    Notifications**. Do the same for **All emails** to stop marketing and recap
    emails. Essential account emails still come through.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="Why didn't a notification open anything?" icon="circle-help">
    Most notifications jump you straight to the app, profile, or comment
    involved. A few — like the weekly recap — are just-for-reading updates. If
    something feels off, check [troubleshooting](/help/troubleshooting).
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="Are notifications timed to my timezone?" icon="clock">
    Yes. App of the Day (10 AM) and the weekly recap (Monday) land in your
    device's local time automatically — there's nothing to set.
  </Accordion>
