# Notifications and reminders

> Choose what CogniPage tells you about, and the hours when it stays silent.

CogniPage can nudge you, but it starts silent: push notifications are off until you switch them on. Once on, you choose each category separately, and set hours when nothing reaches you at all.

**Where** Settings → Notifications

## Turning them on

Switch on **Push notifications**. Your operating system asks for permission the first time; CogniPage only remembers the setting as "on" once permission is actually granted. If your OS has already blocked notifications for CogniPage, the panel says so — allow it in your system settings, then switch this back on.

**Send test notification** proves the whole chain end to end. Use it if you are not sure whether reminders are reaching you.

## What CogniPage will tell you about

| Category | When it fires | Default |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Review reminders | When recalls are due — the nudge that keeps knowledge from fading. | On |
| Streak reminders | An evening heads-up when today's streak is still at risk. | On |
| Unfinished reading | Occasionally, about something you read but never put into review. Never while recalls are due. | On |
| Learning insights | What you are improving on, what is slipping, and what to focus on next. | On |
| Credit alerts | A quiet heads-up when your AI credits are running low. | On |

These are all gated by the master switch — with push off, none of them fire.

## Reflection reports

Separately, CogniPage can generate a [reflection](https://cognipage.io/docs/reflection) on a schedule and tell you when it is ready: **daily**, **weekly** or **monthly**. All three are off by default. The Reflection page is always available regardless of whether you switch any of them on.

## Quiet hours

**Pause notifications overnight** silences everything between the two times you set — 10 pm to 8 am out of the box. Anything that would have fired during those hours simply waits.

## Clicking a notification

Notifications are actionable: clicking one brings CogniPage forward and opens the page it is about, so a review reminder lands you on your due cards rather than on Home.

> **A sensible starting point**

> Push on, review reminders on, quiet hours on, everything else as it comes. That is one useful nudge a day. Add weekly reflections once you have a few weeks of history worth summarising.
