About the notification center

Set what notifications you’ll get with the bell icon

Your notification center is located under the bell icon in the top right of your account. It's a HoneyBook-specific hub where you can receive notifications for new inquiries, payments, and more.

When a new notification comes in, the number badge on the bell icon will update to indicate how many unread notifications you have.


Notification topics

HoneyBook notifications are organized across 11 topics:

  • Payments

  • Finance and disputes

  • Leads

  • Files

  • Messages

  • Tasks

  • Scheduling

  • HoneyBook AI

  • Referrals and network

  • Automations

  • Account and security


Actions you can take from the notification center

  • Mark all notifications as read at once

  • Mark an individual notification as read

  • Mark an individual notification as unread

  • Toggle between unread and all notifications

  • Select a notification to view the corresponding file, project, etc.

  • Select Show more to view more notifications

  • Customize the notification types you receive


Manage your notification preferences

You can control what HoneyBook notifies you about and which channels each alert is delivered to. Notification settings are personal, and each user can manage their own preferences independently.

To access your notification settings, go to Settings → My Account → Notifications, or click the sliders icon in the top right corner of the notification center

The page is organized as a grid of topics and channels. The three delivery channels are:

  • In-app — Bell icon and notification feed in the web app

  • Mobile push — HoneyBook mobile app

  • Email — Sent to your inbox

Each topic has a toggle for each channel. Turning off a topic's channel mutes all notifications within that topic for that channel at once. You can also expand any topic to reveal its individual notification types and toggle each one per channel independently. All changes save automatically.


Always-on alerts

A small set of critical notifications can never be turned off. This includes notifications regarding:

  • Disputes

  • Tax information issues

  • Broken integrations (such as Gmail or Google Calendar disconnecting)

  • Security events

Everything else is yours to adjust as you see fit for your account.


Mobile push notifications

If push notifications aren't enabled on your phone, or you haven't installed the HoneyBook mobile app, the Mobile push column will show a status indicator ("Push is off" or "Not installed") with steps to resolve it. You can still configure your mobile push preferences ahead of time — your settings will take effect automatically once push is enabled on your device.
