You can turn push notifications and sounds on and off in the iOS settings and in our app. 

Note: If you turn off push notifications, Background App Refresh will also be disabled, which means that our app will not be able to fetch your emails in the background. Your badge count will also not be updated in real-time.

iOS Settings

Scroll down to our app, tap Notifications, toggle both Allow Notifications and Sounds on or off.

You can have more fine-tuned control over your push notification settings for each of your mail accounts within our app, including whether or not you want to receive notifications for all of your emails, or just email from your Focused Inbox. 

To learn more about Focused Inbox, see What is Focused Inbox?

Within our app

Open the left navigation menu, tap the Gear icon at the bottom, and then select Settings. In Notifications under Mail or Calendar, you can adjust push notifications or turn them on or off for your Mail (All, Focused, or None) and Calendar, and choose sounds for each.
