# Notifications

**For:** Manager | Shift worker | Admin
**You'll need:** Nothing.

{{ app_name }} keeps notifications minimal in v1: a few transactional emails, plus in-app toasts. There is no separate notification panel and no per-event subscription settings.

## What gets emailed

- **Invitation emails** — sent when a manager adds you to a company. See {doc}`/set-up-your-company/people/add-a-person`.
- **Email confirmation** — sent when you sign up or add a new email address to your account. See {doc}`/settings-and-admin/account/verify-your-email`.
- **Password reset** — sent when you request a password reset.

These are transactional and can't be turned off.

## In-app toasts

Toasts are the small messages that slide in at the top of the screen after you do something — saving a shift, publishing the schedule, deleting a person.

- Non-error toasts auto-dismiss after **3.5 seconds**.
- Error toasts stay until you close them.
- Hover a toast to pause its timer.
- A maximum of **10 toasts** are shown at once; older ones drop off the bottom.

There's nothing to configure — toasts are how the system tells you what just happened.

## The 'Send invitation' toggle

When you add a person under **Company → People**, the form has a **'Send invitation'** checkbox. Tick it and {{ app_name }} emails them an invitation link on save. Leave it off if you want to add the person quietly and invite them later.

See {doc}`/set-up-your-company/people/add-a-person` for the full flow.

## Verify it worked

After an action, look for a toast at the top of the screen. After you tick **'Send invitation'** and save, the recipient receives an email within a minute or two.
