FAQs

Q: Are SMS notifications sent to users for Messages or Announcements?

A: SMS notifications are sent out for Announcements.

SMS notifications are intentionally not sent out for messages because users cannot directly reply to SMS notifications. This is by design. Instead, users are required to log in to the app to respond to messages.
