You can now set up notifications not only at the sport level but directly for your favourite teams and matches. It doesn't matter if you're on Android or iOS, the new feature is now available for both platforms.
How do you set up individual alerts?
1. Go to the specific team's page. If it's not yet one of your favourites, click on the star icon, which you'll find at the right of the page header.
2. When you click on the star, a new bell icon will appear to the left of it.
3. Click on the bell icon and you will see a full menu of notifications that you can turn on/off for that team (lineups, goals, red cards, etc.).
4. You can set the notifications according to your preferences, or you can turn off all notifications with one click. The team will still remain in your favourites and their matches will be displayed in the same section.
5. The settings are automatically saved for the selected team and all their future matches.
6. If you want to edit or mute the notifications for one particular match, do the same; just enter the match page and follow the same steps as above. This way you can change the notification settings for any game, whether your favourite team is playing or you have just marked it as 'My Game'.
How might you find the notification settings useful?
- For some teams, you don't need to receive information about every single event. For example, you only need to be notified of the start of the game or the final score. Now you can divide the teams you follow into categories of your liking.
- You're about to watch one of your favourite teams play live, but you don't want notifications popping up on your phone. You want all the information you need for the other matches playing at the same time. With advanced settings, you can easily determine the amount of news you want to receive.
- You might have a bet on a certain opportunity (red card, half-time result, etc.) in a match that you have in your favourites. At that moment, you may be interested in that one notification that is decisive for the outcome of your ticket.
Notification settings for selected sports
In the future, you may want to customize notifications across sports (football, tennis, basketball). In that case, check the notification section in the app settings. If you click on a specific sport and then change the settings for a specific item (lineups, goal, end of the game, etc.), you will be asked for two options to save: either enable the change for all 'My Teams' from that sport that you had marked previously or leave the original teams unchanged and then the new settings will only take effect for those you add later.
Updates to the app
Notifications for favourite teams and matches are available for Android from version 5.13 and now also for iOS from version 25.1. If you don't have the latest version of the app, you can download it from Google Play or the Apple App Store.
