Notifications

Radio Messenger alerts you to new activity so you don’t have to watch the app. Alerts arrive when you’re in another app, when the app is in the background, and when your phone is locked.

What you’re alerted to

  • Incoming messages.
  • Incoming reactions.
  • Shared locations.
  • File offers.

The app icon badge shows your number of unread messages.

Quiet a conversation

To stop alerts from a specific conversation, open its menu in the inbox and choose Hide Alerts. Messages still arrive in the conversation — you won’t be alerted for them.

To turn alerts back on, choose Show Alerts.

For APRS conversations, alerts can reach you even when your radio isn't available. See Internet Assisted.
