You can receive several types of notifications on your phone. These notifications can keep you updated on things like:
- New likes and comments on your steps
- Step suggestions
- Reminders for upcoming trips
- The status of your Travel Book order
- Travel Book promotions
- When the friends you follow place a new step
- Friend requests
Where can I turn the notifications on and off?
- Go to 'Settings'
- Tap 'Notifications'. Here you can choose per type of notification if you wish to receive it or not.
- Android: On some Android devices, it might be necessary to enable the 'notification categories' first. To do so: Open (device) Settings > Notifications > Advanced Settings > Manage notification categories for each app.
Please note: You can only receive notifications when you have an account on Polarsteps and when you have the app on your phone. So not via mail or any other external application.
If you are not receiving notifications, please check if your settings are correct and if you are using an adblocker on your phone that might be filtering out push notifications.
