Sending Alert Messages
How-to
Sending important updates to your team is super easy with TeamSnap's alerts feature. You can send out one message to your entire team and each member will receive the message in the format they choose: a push notification, an email, or both.
Alerts can be sent from the Messages tab on the TeamSnap web and mobile apps. Both sent and received alerts appear in the Alerts section of the Messages tab. When an alert is sent, TeamSnap delivers the message via either push notification or email to each enabled user as follows:
Push Notifications Enabled? |
Alert Type Received |
Push Notification + Email | |
- Click the Messages tab
- Click the Alerts button
- Click the + New Alert button
- Enter your alert message
- Select recipients
- Click Send this Alert
Depending on the preferences of the recipients, the message will be received as an in-app push notification, and/or an email. Learn more about Understanding Alert Messages.
