Notifications
The in-app feed and push notifications, on web and mobile.
Notifications carry the signal that needs you: assignments, review requests, and mentions. The design goal is that you can close Plain and trust it to come find you.
What notifies you
- An issue or PR is assigned to you.
- Your review is requested on a pull request.
- You are @-mentioned in any conversation.
- An agent session you started finishes or fails.
The feed
The in-app feed collects notifications in order, streaming in live. Each entry links to its source; mark items read individually, archive them, or clear the lot with mark-all-read. Unread state syncs across devices, so reading on your phone clears the web badge.
Push devices
The mobile apps register for push automatically, and tapping a push deep-links to the exact screen: the conversation, the issue, the PR. Devices are listed in your settings and can be removed at any time; signing out removes the device's push registration with it.
