Notifications

In-app alerts and email preferences for deadlines and status updates.

BoardingPass keeps you informed in the app and by email (when enabled).

In-app notifications

When logged in, the bell icon in the top navigation opens your notification list.

You can:

  • View up to 30 recent notifications with title, body, and timestamp.
  • Mark as read on individual items.
  • Mark all read in one action.
  • Follow links inside notifications (often to Tracker entries).
  • Open Tracker from the panel footer.

Notifications are created when relevant events happen — for example, application status changes.


Email notifications

Control email behavior in Settings.

Deadline reminders

When enabled, BoardingPass emails you about upcoming application deadlines you set on Tracker entries.

Turn this off if you prefer in-app tracking only.

Status updates

When enabled, you receive email when an application status changes in the tracker (e.g. Saved → Applied → Interview).

Preferences save automatically

Settings save automatically after you change a toggle or the email frequency. Email address edits save a moment after you stop typing, as long as the address is valid.


What BoardingPass does not email today

  • Marketing or promotional messages
  • Instant job alerts (use Job match alerts on Settings for daily or weekly digests instead)
  • Challenge approval notifications by email (check the submission workspace and gallery)

Tip

Set deadlines on applications you care about — reminders only work when a deadline date is present and email toggles are on.

Note

If emails do not arrive, check spam folders and confirm toggles are saved on Settings.
