Notifications and email digests
Choose which events reach you in the Inbox and by email — and why email arrives as an hourly or daily digest rather than instantly.
Last updated
Laya notifies you in two places: in-app, in your Inbox, and by email digest. Both are controlled from one page — Notifications, under the Account section of the sidebar or your account chip menu.
The Notifications page
The Notifications page ("Choose what reaches you, and where.") is a matrix with four columns — Event, In-app, Email and Frequency — across seven event types:
- Mentions
- Assigned to me
- Status changes
- Comments
- Due soon
- Due today
- Overdue
The page's footer spells out where each channel lands: "Emails go to <your address>. In-app notifications appear in your Inbox. Hourly/daily frequencies are batched into a single digest."
In-app delivery
In-app notifications appear in your Inbox — the full-page /inbox with its seven lanes, and the topbar bell, whose badge updates live as notifications arrive. See Navigation and the shell for a tour of the lanes and the bell popover.
Email is a digest, not instant
Email delivery is batched: notifications with an hourly or daily frequency are collected into a single digest per cadence. Turning the Email toggle on for an event sets its frequency to Hourly — instant email delivery is not part of how digests are sent.
Not getting email?
Before reporting missing notification email, check these in order:
- On the Notifications page, confirm the Email toggle is on for the event type and read its Frequency column — an Hourly or Daily digest means the email can lag the event by up to that cadence, by design.
- Check your spam or junk folder for the digest.
- Confirm the address itself: the footer notes "Emails go to <your address>" — your sign-in email, shown with a Verified/Unverified pill on your Profile page.
Still nothing after a full cadence has passed? Start with Troubleshooting: start here or contact support@laya.net.
