Your notifications inbox

Updated 27 Oct 2026

The bell icon in the navigation bar is your notifications inbox. A red badge on the bell tells you how many unread notifications you have across everything — RSVPs, event updates, invitations, community follows, photo activity.


Opening the inbox

Tap the bell to see the list. The most recent notifications are at the top.

Each notification:

  • Shows what happened and which event or community it's about
  • Has an icon hinting at the kind (calendar, person, photo, etc.)
  • Is a deep link — tap it to land on the right page

Marking things read

A notification is marked read when you open it. Mark all read clears the rest. The badge count updates instantly.


Real-time

When something new happens, the badge ticks up without you needing to refresh — as long as your Cloomba tab is open or you have push notifications enabled.


Push notifications

Push notifications are the same events, delivered to your device's notification center. See Setting up push notifications to turn them on.


Email notifications

Some kinds of notification — RSVP confirmations, event updates, invitations — are also sent by email. See Email reminders & alerts.


Choosing where notifications reach you

The inbox lists every notification. To choose which kinds also reach you by email, push, or Telegram, open Preferences in your account on the web, or Settings → Notifications in the app. Each kind — event reminders, organizer announcements, registrations, comments and mentions, invitations, chat requests, community newsletters, and the daily digest — has its own switch for each channel. Account and payment alerts always arrive.
