The bell at the top of the screen is where Finocket tells you things. A number on it means there is something you have not read yet. Tap it to see the list, tap anything in the list to go straight to it.
Who gets told?
Whoever the thing is actually about. If you own the business you hear about everything; if someone has invited you as an assistant you hear about the work you can act on. Every notification says why it came to you — “you own this workspace”, or “you can approve this” — so you are never left guessing.
This is new. Until now only the business owner could be notified about anything, which meant a colleague waiting to approve something had no way of knowing it was waiting.
Can I turn some of them off?
Yes. Under Settings you can switch phone alerts on or off for four things individually: an invoice falling due, a payment arriving, a module request waiting on you, and the daily digest.
Switching one off stops the phone alert only. It does not hide anything from the bell, so nothing is lost — it simply waits quietly until you look.
Security alerts are the exception and cannot be switched off. If someone signs in to your account from a new device, or a password or key is changed, you will be told. That is the one case where “my notifications were off” is not a good answer afterwards.
Quiet at night
Finocket has no quiet-hours setting of its own. To keep your phone silent overnight, use your phone's own Do Not Disturb or Focus schedule — it silences Finocket along with everything else, and notifications are still waiting in the bell when you look in the morning.
If you switch a channel off under Settings, that is permanent rather than nightly — there is no way to silence a channel only between certain hours.
Why did I not get something?
If Finocket decided not to send you something, it records that decision and the reason for it rather than letting it disappear. So “I was never told” is a question that can actually be answered — contact support with roughly when you expected it and we can see exactly what happened.
One honest limitation: if you invited a colleague by phone number and they have not opened Finocket yet, there is no account to send a notification to. They will need to sign in once before they can be told anything.
On your phone
Notifications work in the browser and in the Finocket app on Android and iOS. You will be asked for permission the first time; if you said no and have changed your mind, you can turn it back on from your phone’s own settings for the app.
