Tap the Settings app on your device.
1. Tap Notifications.
2. Scroll to and tap the EIQ connect app.
3. Tap Allow Notifications to turn on Push notifications for EIQ connect (make sure the button is green as shown above).
4. Select one or more types of ALERTS you wish to receive - Lock Screen, Notification Center, and/or Banners.
- Lock Screen alerts are banners that appear on your “lock screen” in a scrollable list; swipe one, and you’ll instantly be taken to EIQ connect. These type of alerts allow you to view the message without having to unlock your device.
- Notification Center alerts are alerts that only appear in a summary list of notifications that you can access in the Notification Center at any time by flicking down from the top of the display.
- Banners are a slim notification pane that slides into view along the top of your device screen before disappearing a few seconds later. You can ignore a banner if you wish, pull down the banner to reveal the full Notification Center (see above), or tap it to jump to EIQ connect. Unlike pop up alerts, banners won’t interrupt whatever you’re doing on your device.
5. Turn Sounds and Badges on or off. This will control whether you will hear a sound when a push notification is received and whether a little red dot with a number (signifying the number of waiting alerts) will appear in the top corner of the EIQ connect app icon on your device home screen.
6. Finally, choose whether or not you want to show a message preview (if available) or not with each notification and how you would like your messages grouped.
- Automatic: The notifications from the app are grouped according to organizing criteria within the app, such as by topic or thread.
- By App: All the notifications from the app are grouped together.
- Off: Turn off grouping. Messages should be shown as received.
Pro Tip: Don't forget to turn off Do Not Disturb mode if you have enabled it before: On an iPhone, unlock your phone, swipe down on your screen from to right to see the control center, check Focus to see if it is enabled and tap to disable Do Not Disturb mode.
