# Email and in-app notifications

> Choose how revenue, Health and Opportunities alerts reach you: in the app, by email right away or in a summary.

Each member chooses how the alerts of the organization reach them, in **Settings > Notifications**. The choices apply to you only, in the organization that is open, and can only narrow what the [organization's rules](https://docs.usestealth.dev/en/alerts/overview.md) send.

## How it works

### When an email goes out

| Severity | **Right away** | **Daily summary at 8 AM** |
| - | - | - |
| **Critical** | Email right away | Email right away |
| **Attention** | Email right away | In the daily summary |
| **Light** | No email, only the bell | In the daily summary |

Critical alerts always arrive right away. The daily summary is the only email with Light alerts.

* **Right away** means right after the check that found the event. You receive one email per check with all your new alerts, not one email per incident.
* The **daily summary** goes out at 08:00 in the organization's time zone, with one block per incident. An alert that already went out in an immediate email is not repeated in the summary.
* The subject starts with the organization name, followed by what happened.
* Emails are sent in the language of your account.

### In the app

With **In-app notifications** on, every alert that passes your filters appears in the bell right after the check, whatever its severity.

### Back to normal

With **Back to normal** on, you also hear when a drop ends. This choice is always yours, even for drops that were mandatory.

### Health and Opportunities

[Health](https://docs.usestealth.dev/en/screens/health.md) and [Opportunities](https://docs.usestealth.dev/en/screens/opportunities.md) have their own rows, **Health** and **Opportunities**, each with **In-app** and **Email**. The revenue choices above (minimum severity, frequency, back to normal) do not apply to them.

* **Health**: an ad unit turned off in Google Ad Manager arrives right away. Everything else the daily check finds at **Attention** or above arrives in one morning summary at 9 AM in the organization's time zone. **Light** findings stay on the **Health** screen. This summary is separate from the revenue daily summary at 8 AM.
* **Opportunities**: one email a week, on Mondays after the weekly calculation, with the new items of high or medium confidence only. Nothing is sent when there are none.

An **Owner** or **Administrator** turns each one on or off for the whole organization in **Control Center > Alerts**. Health alerts start on and Opportunities alerts start off. When the organization turns one off, its row says so and its switches cannot be changed.

## Steps

**1. Open your notification settings**

Go to **Settings > Notifications**. The **Revenue** card holds the alert choices.

**2. Choose the channels**

Turn **In-app notifications** and **Email notifications** on or off. If the organization made some alerts mandatory, the last channel that is on shows **Kept on by your organization**.

**3. Narrow the severity, if you want**

In **Minimum severity**, choose **Everything your organization sends**, **Critical and Attention** or **Critical only**.

**4. Choose the email frequency**

Choose **Right away** or **Daily summary at 8 AM**.

## What you see

**Settings > Notifications** has three cards:

* **Revenue**: the alert choices above, with the **Health** and **Opportunities** rows.
* **Security**: notices when two-factor authentication is turned on or a Google or GitHub account is connected. A password change, two-factor authentication being turned off and a disconnected account always notify you on both channels.
* **Team & Organization**: a notice when someone you invited accepts the invitation.

## FAQ

> [accordion] I chose Critical only. Why did I receive an Attention alert?
>
> The organization made **Attention** mandatory. Mandatory alerts ignore the personal minimum severity.

> [accordion] Why did I not receive a Light alert by email?
>
> With **Right away**, Light alerts go only to the bell. Choose **Daily summary at 8 AM** to receive them by email once a day.

> [accordion] Do I receive alerts for clients that are not monitored?
>
> No new incidents open for them. Incidents that were already open when monitoring was turned off still update the bell until they are resolved, without email.
