Manage ClickUp Mobile Notifications

Manage ClickUp Mobile Notifications

Staying on top of work in ClickUp is easier when your mobile notifications are set up correctly. This guide shows you how to enable, customize, and troubleshoot alerts on your phone so you only receive the updates that matter.

Overview of ClickUp Mobile Notifications

Mobile notifications in ClickUp are push alerts sent from specific settings in your Workspace and from your mobile device. They help you track tasks, comments, mentions, and reminders while you are away from your computer.

You can control which updates send you push notifications, how they behave on your phone, and what to do when something stops working.

Types of ClickUp Mobile Notifications

ClickUp sends several kinds of alerts to your mobile device. Knowing the differences helps you decide what to enable.

Task and Activity Notifications in ClickUp

These notifications keep you informed about work changes, such as:

  • New tasks assigned to you.
  • Changes to task status or due dates.
  • Comments and replies on tasks you are involved in.
  • Mentions using @ in comments or task descriptions.

These alerts are managed through your notification settings in the web or desktop version of ClickUp and then delivered to your mobile app.

Reminder Notifications in ClickUp

Reminders are scheduled alerts that you set for yourself. When reminders are enabled in the app, ClickUp can send push notifications at the exact time you choose, helping you remember important deadlines or follow-ups.

Permission and System Notifications

Your mobile operating system also influences ClickUp notifications. If app permissions are disabled on your device, ClickUp cannot send you push alerts. You must allow notifications for the app at the OS level before any in-app settings will work.

Set Up ClickUp Mobile Notifications

To start receiving alerts on your phone, install the mobile app and review the notification options.

Step 1: Install the ClickUp Mobile App

  1. Open the App Store (iOS) or Google Play Store (Android).
  2. Search for ClickUp.
  3. Download and install the official app.
  4. Log in with your ClickUp account credentials.

Once signed in, you can connect your Workspace preferences to your mobile experience.

Step 2: Allow ClickUp Notifications on Your Device

When you open the app for the first time, your device may ask whether to allow notifications. Choose to allow them, or later adjust them in system settings.

On most devices you can update this as follows:

  • iOS: Go to Settings > Notifications > ClickUp. Turn on Allow Notifications and choose your alert style.
  • Android: Go to Settings > Apps & notifications (or Apps) > ClickUp > Notifications. Enable the notification toggle.

If system notifications are not enabled, ClickUp cannot send any push messages, even if they are turned on inside the app.

Step 3: Configure Notification Settings in ClickUp

Next, adjust the specific events that trigger notifications from inside ClickUp.

  1. Open the mobile app and log in.
  2. Tap your profile avatar or workspace menu.
  3. Open Notifications or the equivalent settings section.
  4. Choose which events send you mobile push notifications, such as task assignments, comments, mentions, and reminders.

Your mobile notification preferences work together with your general Workspace notification settings. If an event is disabled in your account-wide preferences, you will not get that alert on mobile.

Customize ClickUp Mobile Notification Behavior

After turning notifications on, customize how they appear and when they alert you.

Adjust Notification Channels in ClickUp

ClickUp can send messages to several channels, such as email, in-app notifications, and mobile push. Make sure the mobile channel is enabled where available in your account settings so that important actions trigger alerts on your phone.

Typically, you can:

  • Turn mobile push on or off for specific event types.
  • Enable notifications for mentions only, to reduce noise.
  • Limit updates to tasks you are assigned or watching.

Control Notification Style on Your Device

Your operating system controls how ClickUp notifications look on your screen.

  • Sounds and banners: Choose whether notifications play a sound, show as banners, appear in the notification center, or on the lock screen.
  • Badge counts: Enable or disable app icon badges that show unread alerts.
  • Do Not Disturb / Focus: Adjust system focus modes to allow or silence ClickUp notifications during certain times.

These options are found in the standard notification settings area on your device, under the ClickUp app entry.

Troubleshoot ClickUp Mobile Notifications

If you stop receiving alerts or notice delays, use these checks to identify and resolve the problem.

Confirm ClickUp Account Notification Settings

  1. Sign in to ClickUp on the web or desktop app.
  2. Open your personal notification settings.
  3. Confirm that the actions you expect, such as comments or assignments, are enabled.
  4. Save any changes, then test by mentioning yourself or assigning a test task.

If notifications are disabled at the account level, they will not reach your mobile device.

Check Mobile App Permissions

Confirm your phone still allows notifications for the app.

  • Open the device settings.
  • Navigate to the ClickUp app.
  • Ensure notifications are turned on and not restricted by a system rule or profile.

Also verify that background data or battery optimization settings are not blocking ClickUp from sending realtime alerts.

Update and Reinstall the ClickUp App

Outdated app versions can sometimes cause notification issues.

  1. Open the App Store or Google Play Store.
  2. Search for ClickUp and check for available updates.
  3. Install the latest version.
  4. If problems continue, uninstall and reinstall the app, then log back in.

After reinstalling, you may need to allow notifications again when prompted by your device.

Check Workspace Access and Login Status

Make sure you are logged into the correct Workspace and account. If you switch workspaces or log out, notifications linked to a different environment will not appear.

  • Open the ClickUp app and confirm your active Workspace.
  • Log out and back in if the connection seems out of date.
