Notifications
Weekly email, and web push in the browser on this device. Not a phone-app notification.
Where to find it
Settings → Weekly email & alerts, and the card under it, Notifications on this device.
Two different switches live under Settings.
Weekly email and alerts
Weekly email & alerts chooses which notes Jarful may send by email: bills, a low balance, large payments, new subscriptions, and similar. A bill-due alert is a notification. The weekly email is the list of the week’s bills. Sign-in codes are sent either way. Product news is off unless you turn it on, under Privacy → Email preferences. Setup reminders are on unless you turn them off.

- Open Notifications on this device.
- Press Turn on notifications on this device. The browser asks permission. You can turn names and amounts on or off, and quiet hours from 9 pm to 7 am.
- Send test checks the device. Remove switches that device off.
Each browser is its own device. Turning it on here does not turn it on for your partner or for your other computer.
On an iPhone, the card will not offer the button until Jarful is opened from the home screen. In Safari, use Share, then Add to Home Screen, open Jarful from that icon, and come back to this card. That needs iOS 16.4 or later. It is still the website, saved to the home screen.
If the card says Notifications aren’t available just yet, they are not available in this browser. Check back later. Do not keep tapping in the hope a phone-app notification appears.
What this does not do
This is web push in the browser only. There isn’t a Jarful app to install from a store, and you should not expect a notification from a phone app. Adding Jarful to the home screen does not create one.
