Never miss an important update again! Whether it’s a new deliverable assigned to you, a project status change, or someone tagging you in a comment, Monograph’s in-app notifications are designed to keep you informed and in control.

Each notification includes a checkbox that users can select or deselect according to their preferences. To manage these settings, go to Settings > Notifications.
Notifications are grouped into two main categories: General Notifications and Project Notifications. Toward the bottom of the page, there’s an option to show or hide the list of all followed projects.
