# Staff notification preferences

Running the company · Web and mobile · 2 min read · Updated October 18, 2026

**On Pro and Business, each person chooses whether to get an email notice when a new staff announcement is posted. New announcements also appear in the notification bell.**

When an owner or manager publishes a staff announcement, the people it is for
see it in **Staff** and in their notification bell. Each person can also choose
to get an email when a new announcement is posted. Staff notifications are
included with **Pro and Business**.

## Turn on email copies

1. Open **Staff**, then select **Notification settings**.
2. Tick **Email me a copy of new staff announcements**.
3. Select **Save preferences** and wait for **Preferences saved**.

To stop the emails, clear the tick and save again.

This choice is yours alone and applies at every location you work at. A
manager cannot turn it on for you. Email copies start turned off, and turning
them on does not send announcements that were posted before.

## What the email contains

The email is a short notice with a link to sign in. The announcement itself
stays in Staff, so private details never sit in an inbox. Time-off reasons and
private documents are never included.

Getting a notification does not mark an announcement as read or acknowledged.
Open Staff and use **Mark as read** or **Acknowledge** for that.

## Good to know

- People who leave the team or lose access to a location stop getting these
  emails.
- Push notifications are separate from these email preferences. In native builds
  configured for push, delivery also requires the server setup and this phone's
  permission. See [Notification settings](/docs/notifications) and
  [Native version availability](/docs/the-mobile-app).
- If your preferences do not load, select **Refresh**. If saving cannot be
  confirmed, select **Retry saving**.

See [Staff communication](/docs/staff-updates) for how
announcements work.

## On the native app

Native versions with Staff include this workflow too. Open **Staff** for time
off, documents and notification preferences; **Visit offers** is also available
from native Settings or the Crew menu. The same Pro/Business, location and role
rules apply. These actions need an internet connection; keep a pending draft
open and use its offered retry if the result is unknown.

See [Native version availability](/docs/the-mobile-app).
