Notifications in Settings is where you choose what Foundable tells you about, and how: inside the app, by text or by email. Your choices are saved to your own account.
The In-app notification settings: signal alerts, quiet hours, and pop-ups for new emails and social messages.
1

Open Settings, then Notifications. It’s in the Account group.
2

Turn a switch on or off, or pick a level from a list.

Press Save changes. You’ll see “Notification preferences saved.”

​
Settings that aren’t used yet

These settings are saved now but not used yet: Signal alerts, Quiet hours, Email pop-ups, Social pop-ups, Signal texts, Milestone updates and Product guidance. The “Coming soon” card at the top of the page adds: “What you choose here is saved and applies once they arrive.” The other three switches are for emails about your foundable: Replies to your emails, Scheduled tasks and Daily Updates. Turn one off, and Foundable won’t send you that email. See Email.

​
In-app

None of these is used yet. Your choices are saved for when they arrive. If From and To are the same, you’ll see “Choose different start and end times for quiet hours.”

​
Text

Signal texts: “Uses your linked iMessage or SMS channel for the highest attention signals.” Pick “Critical only, safety and billing” (the default), “Action required, blockers and approvals” or “Off, no signal texts”. Your choice is saved, but no signal texts are sent yet. To link your phone, see Text Ted from your phone.

​
Email

These switches are for emails to the address you sign in with. Each one is on at first.

​
Stop an email from the email itself

Each email these switches send has a one-click unsubscribe link that turns its own switch off. The footer says why you got it, for example “You get this email because ‘Scheduled tasks’ is on in your notification settings.” After you unsubscribe from Ted’s morning email, you’ll see “You’re unsubscribed from Daily Updates. You can turn them back on in Foundable’s Settings, under Notifications.”

​
Your time for notifications

Personal notifications follow Your local time, in Settings › Account. It’s separate from your foundable’s own clock. See Your local time and Foundable time.

​
Let Ted change them

Ask Ted in the chat, and he can suggest a change to any of these settings. He shows it on a card first, and nothing changes until you press Confirm. See Let Ted change settings for you.

​
FAQ

Turn off Daily Updates in Settings › Notifications and press Save changes. Or use the unsubscribe link at the bottom of the email.
Signal texts are saved now but not sent yet. Once they arrive, they go to the phone you’ve linked to Ted, at the level you picked.
Yes, for scheduled tasks. With Scheduled tasks on, you get an email when a task is ready for your OK, with a button to review it. Everything else waiting for you shows in the app. See Approve Ted’s work.
