# Alerts

> Open your OS notification settings, turn on push notifications in the mobile app and choose which kinds reach this phone.

**Alerts** decides how this app alerts you. It sits in the **Application** group of [Settings](https://docs.traycer.ai/settings.md), after [Sounds](https://docs.traycer.ai/settings/sounds.md).

Which events create a notification in the first place is set per host, in Host › [Notifications](https://docs.traycer.ai/settings/notifications.md). For what notifications are and where they appear, see [Notifications](https://docs.traycer.ai/concepts/notifications.md).

## System

**OS notifications** (desktop app): banners, badges and delivery are managed by your operating system. Click **Open Settings** to open your OS notification settings for Traycer.

## This Phone

**Push notifications on this phone** (mobile app) shows whether this phone can receive a host's notifications:

* If you haven't been asked yet, tap **Enable**.
* If they are turned off for Traycer, tap **Open Settings** to turn them back on in the phone's Settings app. The phone only asks once, so this is the way back after you declined.
* When they are on, the row reads **On**.

Once they are on, a switch for each kind of notification chooses which ones reach this phone. All four are on to begin with. Turning one off stops that kind from reaching this phone only; other phones and the desktop app are unaffected, and the notification still appears in the app.

| Switch | Covers |
| - | - |
| **Needs action** | Approvals and interviews. |
| **Failure** | Errored turns, stalls, crashes, and rate limits. |
| **Done** | Completed or intentionally stopped turns. |
| **Info** | Sharing, comments, access changes, and other informational notifications. |

A kind a host does not create never reaches the phone, whatever its switch says; see [Events](#events).

## Events

**Notification events** chooses which events alert you, for the host selected in Settings. Click **Open Host Notifications** to go to Host › [Notifications](https://docs.traycer.ai/settings/notifications.md).
