How to use Notifications

To assist with your screen time goals and remind you to use the app, Opal has a multiple "Notifications" options on the iPhone version of the app.Β To access this feature, navigate to your "Profile" tab - "Settings" (accessible from the gear icon in the top right corner). Once you tap on "Notifications," you can toggle on or off multiple types of Notifications, including:

  • Reminders: Get notified to turn on Opal when we haven't seen you in a while.
  • Service: Get notified when your schedule starts or focus session is over.
  • App Limit: Get notified when you're close to reaching your App Limit.
  • Break Reminders: Be notified that your break will end soon.
  • Screentime Report: Get notified when your screen time report is available.
  • MileStones: Get notified when you unlock a new Milestone.
  • Friends: Get notified about your friends in Opal.
  • Marketing: Get notified about promotional offers and discounts.
  • Streaks: Get notified about your Streak progress.

You may also select "Disable Opal Notifications" at the bottom of the page if you prefer.

IΒ want to disable Notifications from all of my apps!

If you're interested in reducing the number of Notifications you receive for other apps, you will need to exit Opal and navigate to your device "Settings" - "Notifications." Once there, you may customise your Notifications for the apps installed on your iPhone. For more information, please head here.

IΒ want to receive Notifications for an app that is in a Session, Time Limit, or Open Limit! Why don't you have that option?

Currently, it is intentional design that any app subjected to an active Session, Time Limit, or Open Limit is unable to send you Notifications. You'll need to wait until that Session ends to receive Notifications from that app.
