Notifications Overview

Notifications are an effective way to keep users engaged as they provide timely and relevant updates, a personalized user experience, increase the frequency of app usage, and improve user retention. 

Notifications will appear on the user's notification bar according to the app/notification setting. Users can also tap the bell icon  in the app to view all notifications. 

How to Create a Notification

1. On the FLEX page click Notifications
   
2. Click the blue New Notification button

Each notification allows for a title, body message, link, and picture. The different notification types have different required and non-required fields. Some badges allow for targeted messages based on the journey and milestone progress to keep encouraging your users. Below is a list of the various notification types.
