Clamly uses push notifications to keep your study sessions on track. Turn on the ones you want. All notifications are opt-in.

</CardGroup>

## Enabling push notifications

Push notifications require a one-time permission grant in your browser.

<Steps>
  <Step title="Open Your Profile Page">
    Click your avatar or initials in the top-right corner, then select **Profile** from the dropdown menu.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Go to Notification Settings">
    Scroll to the **Notifications** section on your Profile page.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Enable Notifications">
    Toggle on the notification types you want to receive. If your browser hasn't granted permission yet, a browser prompt will appear asking you to **Allow** notifications from Clamly.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Click Allow in Your Browser">
    In the browser prompt, click **Allow**. Clamly will confirm that notifications are now active.
  </Step>
</Steps>

<Note>
  Push notifications are delivered through your browser. They work while Clamly is open in a tab, and in most modern browsers they can also appear when Clamly is running in the background.
</Note>

## Managing notifications from your profile

<Steps>
  <Step title="Go to Profile then Notifications">
    Open the **Notifications** section on your Profile page.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Toggle Individual Types">
    Use the individual toggles to turn **Study Reminders**, **Exam Alerts**, and **Achievement Updates** on or off independently.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Save">
    Changes are saved automatically as you toggle each setting.
  </Step>
</Steps>

<Tip>
  If you only want exam alerts during exam season, just switch off study reminders and achievement updates.
</Tip>

## Disabling notifications through browser settings

If you want to stop all Clamly notifications at the browser level, you can revoke permission directly in your browser settings.

<Accordion title="Google Chrome">
  Go to **Settings → Privacy and security → Site settings → Notifications**. Find `clamly.app` in the list and set it to **Block**.
</Accordion>

<Accordion title="Mozilla Firefox">
  Go to **Settings → Privacy and Security → Permissions → Notifications → Settings**. Find `clamly.app` and change the status to **Block**.
</Accordion>

<Accordion title="Safari (macOS)">
  Go to **Safari → Settings → Websites → Notifications**. Find `clamly.app` and set it to **Deny**.
</Accordion>

<Accordion title="Microsoft Edge">
  Go to **Settings → Cookies and site permissions → Notifications**. Find `clamly.app` under the Allow list and remove it, or add it to the Block list.
</Accordion>

<Warning>
  Revoking browser-level permission disables all Clamly push notifications regardless of your in-app toggle settings. To re-enable them later, you'll need to grant permission again from your Profile page.
