- Notifications should clarify context without exposing private notes.
Notifications should help you return to the right context, not pull you into a generic inbox.
In Logit, person-origin updates should appear in the relevant Circle whenever possible. If Sam assigns a task or goal to you, that notice belongs in your Circle with Sam. System notices — reminders, account alerts, and moderation status notices — appear in Needs attention at the top of Connect. Official Logit announcements, support replies, bugs, feature requests, and account help stay in Logit Social so support can reply in context.
🎯 Use This When
- A prompt feels noisy or unclear.
- You want to decide whether to act, mute, snooze, or ignore it.
- You want to understand why prompts appear in Circles.
🔒 What Stays Private
- A notification should not reveal unrelated private journal content.
- Person-origin updates belong in the person or group Circle when possible.
- System notices appear in Needs attention at the top of Connect, not in another person's Circle.
- Official Logit announcements and support replies belong in Logit Social.
- Muting a Circle does not make private notes visible.
✅ One Thing To Do Now
Ask: is this from a person, a Circle, Logit, or my own reminder?
Notification Flow
In short: check where the prompt came from, open the relevant context, then choose the smallest useful response.
Common Prompts
| Notification | Where it should appear | What to do |
|---|---|---|
| Message reply | The relevant Circle. | Reply, leave it, or mute the Circle. |
| Task or goal assigned by a person | The Circle with that person. | Reply, act, or clarify the next step. |
| Habit, focus, journal, or reflection prompt from Logit | Needs attention, or the related action context. | Act, snooze if available, reschedule, pause, or dismiss. |
| Event update | Event Circle. | Check details or follow up. |
| Account, privacy, or moderation alert | Needs attention, or Settings. | Review before changing account controls. |
| Support reply | Logit Social. | Reply in thread if you need help. |
| Official Logit update | Logit Social when it needs discussion, otherwise Needs attention. | Read, act, or leave it for later. |
🔔 Notification Access
The first time a notification would help, Logit asks your permission to send them. Allowing is optional — you can decline and still use everything in the app.
If you allow notifications, you stay in control:
- Turn them off any time in your device settings.
- Mute a noisy Circle or reduce reminder frequency inside Logit.
- Pause a Life Ring or habit during recovery.
A notification only points you back to the right place. It never reveals your private journal notes, and Logit does not send likes, public scores, or follower pressure.
When Notifications Feel Too Loud
- Mute a noisy Circle.
- Reduce reminder frequency.
- Pause a Life Ring or habit during recovery.
- Keep support requests private until timing feels right.
- Use support if notifications seem unsafe, harassing, or wrong.
➡️ Where To Go Next
❓ Frequently Asked Questions
Are notifications public?
No. They should point you back to context without making unrelated private content visible.
Why do some prompts appear in Circles?
If a prompt comes from a person, event, or shared room, keeping it in that Circle helps preserve context and audience.
Can I turn notifications down?
Yes. Mute noisy Circles, pause reminders, or adjust settings when a prompt no longer helps.
Where do system reminders and alerts appear?
Prompts that do not belong to another person or group appear in Needs attention at the top of Connect, or in the related action context, so they stay reviewable without becoming a public feed.
