Setting up your Mobile App Notification Settings

The Whatnot mobile app allows you to choose when you’d like to receive push notifications on your iOS or Android device.

You can configure your settings to receive mobile notifications when:

• A streamer you follow goes live.
• A stream you’ve bookmarked goes live.
• Anytime someone @mentions you in a livestream. You can also specify when you’d like to receive these notifications: from anyone who tags you, only people you follow who tag you, or never. 
• Someone starts following you. 

Note: Users are limited to how many times they can tag you in a given time frame. There are also limits to how many notifications you will receive when you are tagged multiple times in a livestream.
