How to customize your notifications

Permission: Owner, Manager, or Team Member

Turn on the notifications that matter and silence the rest from the “Notifications” tab in your account settings.

Notifications help until there are too many of them. Then you mute everything, and miss the one task that was waiting for you. The fix isn't muting, it's choosing exactly what reaches you.

Where to find your notification settings

  1. Click your profile photo at the top of the page.
  2. From the menu, pick “Account Settings”.
  3. Open the “Notifications” tab.
  4. You'll find these sections: “Phone Notifications”, “Scheduled Reminders”, “In-App Notifications”, and “Email”. Click a section title to expand it.

In-app notifications

This section holds an independent switch for every notification type, all on by default. Turn off what you don't need and leave the rest as they are.

  • “Task assigned to me”: when someone assigns you a new task.
  • “A task I follow is completed”: when a task you follow gets completed.
  • “Comments and replies”: comments on your tasks and files, and replies on Majlis topics you follow.
  • “Mentions”: when someone mentions you in a comment, task, or discussion.
  • “Projects and members”: when you're added to a new project.
  • “Majlis topics”: when a new topic is posted in the Majlis of one of your projects.
  • “Chat mentions”: when someone mentions you in a chat.
  • “Calendar and events”: event invitations, time changes, and cancellations.

Note: These switches govern the bell inside Fareeqy and your browser and phone push alerts together. Turning one off silences that type in both places.

Phone notifications

  1. Open the “Phone Notifications” section.
  2. Turn on the “Instant Alerts” switch.
  3. Your browser asks for notification permission. Click “Allow”.

Warning: On iPhone you must install Fareeqy to your home screen first and open it from there, otherwise phone notifications won't work. Push is tuned for mobile, so if you're on desktop, enable it from your phone.

Scheduled reminders

Alerts that reach you before the moment, not after. “Meeting reminder lead time” sets how long before any event you're invited to the alert arrives, and “Reminder before prayer” turns on an alert before each prayer, calculated for your location, with its timing and the prayers it covers up to you.

Email

  • “Weekly digest”: a summary of your week's tasks, delivered every Sunday at 7 AM. On by default.
  • “Daily Majlis digest”: the new topics and replies you missed. On by default.
  • “Fareeqy updates”: an email when new features and improvements ship. Off by default.
  • “Follow-up emails”: a short reminder if you stop using Fareeqy. On by default.

Email settings are completely independent from in-app settings. Turning off an in-app switch doesn't affect your email, and the other way round.

Tip: There's no Save button. Each switch saves the moment you flip it, and a “Saved” label appears next to the section title.

Note: A few notifications always reach you and can't be switched off, because they're important, not noise: an invitation you sent being accepted, system announcements, a scheduled report failing, usage-limit warnings, Fareeqy Assistant credit alerts, requests for Assistant access and their approval, and a blocked plan change.
