How to configure group-level notifications
You have control of which groups you want to receive notifications from.
This setting is accessible where you see a list of groups or when you specifically select a group.
Your options for notifications are:
All posts - Every post added in this group will send you a notification.
Important posts - Only when the post creator marks this post as important, will you receive a notification. This is the default option.
Mute - You will not receive a notification from any post created in this group.
If you notice the ‘Mute’ option doesn’t appear for the group, that is because the administrators deemed that there could be posts that are important from this group that needs to be seen.
Whichever option you select, these notifications impact both:
Push notifications - The notifications that appear on your device outside of the Blink app
In-app notifications - The notifications that appear when you are inside the Blink app
