Change email and push notification preferences

Updated

In this guide

Open your profile's Notifications & email section to choose the supported email and push notifications you want, then choose Save preferences. Available channels vary by notification type.

Save your preferences

  1. Sign in to the account receiving the notifications and open your profile.
  2. Find Notifications & email.
  3. Change the available switches beside each notification type.
  4. Choose Save preferences and wait for the save to finish.

An unavailable channel is not an extra switch you need to enable. For example, the exchange-updates preference controls push notifications; exchange emails such as invitations, match messages and cancellations can still arrive.

Check list and device settings too

List-specific purchase email settings and gift reveal settings affect what purchase information you receive. Read Keep gifts a surprise before enabling detailed purchase information.

For push alerts, also check your phone's notification permission for GiftList. Account preferences cannot override an operating-system block. For missing email, check spam and the account email address before repeatedly changing preferences.

Occasion reminders

Occasions has reminder settings for individual dates as well. Turning a reminder on is a request for that notification, not a guarantee that a device or email provider will display it.

Still have questions?

Ask our AI help assistant a follow-up, or email the GiftList team.
