Push Notifications

See how SimplySub push notifications keep subcontractor teams informed about job assignments, file uploads, photos, notes, and other activity.

SimplySub push notifications help subcontractors keep their teams informed about important activity without requiring everyone to constantly check the system.

Notifications can be enabled on desktop computers, tablets, iPhones, and Android devices, giving each user the flexibility to receive alerts wherever they work.

What this Feature Spotlight covers

This product tour walks through the push notification setup process, including:

  • Installing the SimplySub app on your device
  • Enabling push notifications from your profile
  • Allowing notifications through your device or browser
  • Enabling notifications separately on multiple devices
  • Sending a test notification to confirm setup
  • Receiving notifications for activity throughout SimplySub

Stay informed about job activity

Push notifications can be used throughout SimplySub for events such as job assignments and activity related to jobs, including files, photos, and notes.

This helps field crews and office staff stay aware of important updates without relying on someone to call, text, or remind them separately.

Receive alerts even when SimplySub is closed

Your SimplySub app does not need to be open for a push notification to arrive. Once notifications are enabled on a device, supported alerts can appear directly through that device's notification system.

Set up each device once

Notification permission is controlled by each individual device. If you want to receive SimplySub notifications on your computer, tablet, and phone, notifications need to be enabled separately on each device.

SimplySub also includes a test notification option so you can quickly confirm that everything is configured correctly before relying on push notifications in the field.
