Contributor keeps you informed about your sessions and points without interrupting your workflow. You control which notifications appear, and you can turn individual event types on or off at any time from the Notifications tab in Account Settings.

​
Where notifications appear

Contributor delivers notifications in two places:

In-app notification bell

The notification bell in the Contributor interface shows your inbox. New events appear here as entries you can read and dismiss at any time.

Desktop toasts

Contributor can also surface events as native desktop toast notifications while the app is running, giving you quick visibility without switching to the app.
Both channels respect the same per-event toggles in Account Settings.

​
Notification types

Contributor sends the following types of notifications:
Sent when a recording session finishes. This notification appears as a desktop toast and in the in-app inbox. You can turn this type off independently if you prefer a quieter experience after each capture.
Sent when you reach a points milestone as a reward for approved sessions. This notification appears as a desktop toast and in the in-app inbox. You can turn this type off independently while keeping other notifications active.
Sent when a reviewer approves one of your submitted sessions. This notification always appears in your inbox when notifications are enabled.
Sent when a reviewer rejects one of your submitted sessions. This notification always appears in your inbox when notifications are enabled and includes information you can use to improve future submissions.
Sent when you earn a bonus from a successful referral. This notification appears in your inbox when notifications are enabled.
Sent by our team for product updates and important notices. Announcements always appear in your inbox regardless of your individual notification preferences.

​
Managing notification preferences

You can enable or disable notifications globally, or tune individual event types, from the Notifications tab in Account Settings.
1

Open Account Settings

Click the settings icon in the Contributor sidebar to open Account Settings.
2

Select the Notifications tab

Click Notifications in the left sidebar of the Account Settings modal.
3

Toggle notifications on or off

The Enable notifications toggle controls all notifications at once. Turn it off to silence both desktop toasts and the in-app inbox entirely.
4

Configure individual event types

With notifications enabled, you can independently toggle Recording complete and Points milestone events. The other notification types always appear when the global toggle is on.
When you turn off the global notifications toggle, all individual event controls are disabled. Re-enabling the global toggle restores your previous per-event preferences.
If you find desktop toasts distracting during recording sessions, turn off Recording complete notifications. You can still check your inbox for session outcomes at any time.
