Notifications!

Good morning all. I have just learned a new hack that I’m pretty sure everyone will have known about except for me but I love it. I used to subscribe to people’s blogs that I found interesting but would never receive notifications or emails. I would then later realise when I was on a blog that I had previously subscribed to that I was no longer subscribed. I would then have to resubscribe but would always have the same result. So I gave up. I didn’t want to keep subscribing to the same blog over and over again. If I preferred certain blogs, I would simply save a post from them and use that as a way to find my way back.

However, yesterday by chance, I discovered a new way to subscribe. I will show you using my blog as an example. This is on the mobile app.

I went to my blog as an example (you can visit any blog) and clicked on the alarm bell. It then brought me this page where I can click on notifications for new posts FROM THE APP. I couldn’t believe my luck. Even though I had been subscribed by email, I was receiving no emails or notifications (even checked my junk email). I am delighted to say that now I can receive notifications if a new post from my favourite blogs has been posted. You have no idea how easy this will make it for me to keep up with new posts. I feel like I often become lost in a rabbit hole with where new posts are or when they were published.

Anyway, I just thought I would share, as a little update but also for others who may be experiencing the same issue. Let me know if you have ever had this problem or do you use this method to receive notifications.

Have a lovely day everyone. I am hoping mine is less chaotic today than yesterday’s whirlwind.
