Notifications are how you find out a spot opened up, your request was approved or the organizer moved the game. Here's how to keep the useful ones and quiet the rest.
Open notification settings
Tap your photo to open your profile, tap the gear icon at the top right, then Notification Settings.
Push notifications
Each type has its own switch:
- Message Notifications — direct messages and event and group chats.
- Game Notifications — updates about your games and invites, including when a spot opens and you move up from the reserve list, and new games in your groups.
- Follow Notifications — new followers and follow requests.
- App Updates — a message from Xsporty when a new version ships.
Quiet Hours
Turn on Quiet Hours and set From and Until — 10 PM to 7 AM by default. Notifications are still saved to your inbox but won't buzz your phone. Payment reminders are the one exception: they come through regardless.
Event Reminders
Turn on Event Reminders and pick when you want them before each game you've joined: 15 minutes, 30 minutes, 1, 2, 6, 12, 24 or 48 hours. The defaults are 24 hours and 2 hours. Organizers can also set reminder times on their games, and a morning-of message goes out around 9 AM.
Communications & Newsletter
Email preferences: Newsletter Emails, Product Updates & Tips and Promotional Offers. Push and email are separate.
Game alerts
Tap Manage game alerts to pause, delete or review your saved-search alerts. See Game alerts.
Mute one game
A busy chat you don't need to follow? Remove that game's notification card from your inbox, or decline its invitation, and the app stops notifying you about that game — for a recurring game, about the whole series.

Frequently asked questions
Can I turn off chat notifications but keep game updates?
Yes. Turn off Message Notifications and leave Game Notifications on.
Will I still get a reminder during quiet hours?
It's saved to your inbox but won't buzz your phone. Set your reminders outside the window, or adjust it.
Will I be notified about a game I'm on the reserve list for?
Yes, as a Game Notification when you move up. Keep that switch on while you're on a list.
