Turn on phone notifications in the Business app
Get alerted on your phone for new bookings, cancellations, messages and payments. · Updated 07/09/2026
The Business app can send notifications straight to your phone's lock screen.
Turn them on
- Open the Business app and tap the bell at the top.
- Tap Turn on notifications and allow the permission your phone asks for.
- Choose which alerts you want: new bookings, cancellations, changed times, customer messages, card payments and a daily summary.
- Tap Send a test notification to check it arrives.
Good to know
- Settings are saved per phone, so each team member can choose their own alerts.
- Tapping an alert opens the matching screen — diary, messages or payments.
- If notifications stop arriving, check your phone's Settings › Notifications for the app, then tap the bell again to re-register the phone.
