📊 3 min read📅 Updated September 2026🏊 Feature: Notifications
TL;DR

The bell is the inbox of notices already sent. Notification settings is where you choose emails and push. On a computer, open them from Profile. On the phone, open My swimmers, then Result alerts.

The bell is not the settings

The bell at the top opens notices already sent. The page title is Notifications. The line under it says new results and personal bests from the swimmers you follow. Inbox, Unread, and Archived switch the list. Search notifications filters it. When nothing has arrived, the page says No notifications yet and names your main swimmer: their next meet will show up here. Mark all as read appears once something is unread.

The bell opens this list. It stays empty until a swimmer you follow has a new result. The switches for what gets sent are on Notification settings, below.

Notification settings is where you decide what is allowed to be sent. In-app notices in the bell stay on. Push notifications are the alerts that can arrive when the app is closed. If the browser is blocking them, the page says so and points you at the lock icon in the address bar.
