Choose your notifications

Choose which Drime events notify you and where, by email, in your browser or on your phone, and see the notifications that are always sent.

Updated Web

For each kind of event, you choose whether Drime tells you by email, in your browser, on your phone, or not at all.

#Choose your notifications

  1. Click your avatar, top right, then Settings, and choose Notifications in the menu on the left.

    The Notifications item of the avatar menu opens your list of notifications, not these settings.

    Settings, Notifications, with the Notify me when… table and its Email, Browser and Mobile columns
  2. Under Notify me when…, tick or untick each channel for each event: Email, Browser or Mobile.

    Turning on Browser asks your browser for permission first.

  3. At the bottom, click Update preferences.

    The button shows a check mark, and Updated preferences confirms the change.

Drime Pages

A task reminder I set is due, A task in a page is assigned to me, A reminder I set on a date in a page is due

For new accounts, Someone uploads files to a shared folder does not send emails until you tick Email for it.

#Notifications that are always sent

Some messages do not depend on these choices, because you need them:

  • when someone mentions you;

  • when someone sends you a file request;

  • when someone shares an item with an address that has no Drime account;

  • the new sign-in alert: see I got a new sign-in alert.

To be told about activity in one specific folder, use folder notifications instead: see Get notified of activity in a shared folder.

#If it doesn't work
