🥜 User Notifications in a Nutshell
How Client Hub keeps users informed—without overwhelming them.
At Client Hub, notifications are designed to alert users to new activity without creating unnecessary noise.
📬 1. Notifications Are Only Sent for Unread Activity
To avoid sending unnecessary notifications:
- Notifications are only triggered for new or updated activity that has not yet been viewed
- This includes messages, tasks, and other updates within the workspace
If a user is actively viewing the workspace:
- Messages and tasks are considered viewed
- Additional email or mobile notifications are not sent for that activity
🕒 2. Email Notifications Are Batched
To prevent inbox overload:
- Email notifications are grouped into a digest
- A summary of unread activity is sent every 15 minutes
Users may also receive:
- Real-time mobile push notifications if the Client Hub mobile app is installed and notifications are enabled
🔔 Notifications vs Read Receipts
Notifications and read receipts serve different purposes:
- Notifications alert users when new activity occurs
- Read receipts (Seen by / Viewed by) show who has opened or viewed a message
A message being marked as viewed may prevent a notification from being sent, but read receipts are displayed separately within the message itself.
