Tuning Your Notifications

This page walks through what the notification settings look like on your screen — where they are, what each toggle actually does, and a couple of gaps worth knowing about. The rules behind it live on Notification Preferences.

1. Where to find the toggles

Open the side menu → Edit account. Scroll down until you hit the Notifications section. It’s about two-thirds of the way down the account editor screen.

2. The master switch: “Stop all notifications”

At the top of the Notifications section is a single toggle labelled Stop all notifications. Off by default (which means notifications are on).

Flip it to on and Furbol stops pushing anything to your phone — game lifecycle, social, roll-call activity, game-day pushes, digests, everything.

One quirk worth naming: flipping this master switch on doesn’t grey out the other toggles below it. They stay fully interactive and they still look “on” — but in practice the master overrides everything, so flipping them on or off while the master is on changes nothing that reaches your phone. If you go back and turn the master off later, whatever the individual toggles were set to is what applies.

3. The per-topic toggles

Below the master switch, six topic toggles let you keep some streams and silence others. On by default, each one saves as soon as you tap it (with a ~1 second delay before the save lands).

Toggle (as shown on screen)What it mutes when off
Games that I’m playing or playedPushes about games you’ve booked into or recently played — last-hour confirms, rate-players prompts, game results.
Games that I’m followingPushes about games you’re following but aren’t in — lineup moves, host edits, quorum changes.
Game LOG UpdatesActivity-feed style pushes when something changes on a game you care about.
Games I’ve been taggedPushes about games where someone tagged you — e.g. placed you as a follower, invited you.
Invitations from friendsPush when someone connected to you invites you to a game.
Invitations from othersPush when someone not connected to you invites you.

Turning a single topic off doesn’t change any of the others. Turning Games I’ve been tagged off, for instance, doesn’t stop pushes about the game you’re playing tonight — that comes from Games that I’m playing or played.

4. The two invitation toggles

The separate friends and others toggles are a finer lever: keep hearing from people you know, quiet the rest.

A common tune: friends on, others off. If you host a lot and want strangers to be able to reach you about their games too, keep both on. If the app feels spammy, turning “others” off is usually the first thing people try.

5. What the app doesn’t tell you

A few gaps worth being aware of:

  • If you’ve blocked Furbol notifications at the OS level (iOS / Android settings), the in-app toggles will still look normal — Furbol doesn’t show a banner saying “your OS is silencing us.” Pushes just won’t arrive. If you’ve tuned the in-app toggles and still aren’t getting notifications, check your phone’s system settings for Furbol.
  • There’s no “preview what I get with this setup” screen. The way to tell if your tuning is right is to live with it for a few days.
  • Muting a single game is a different thing. The 🔕 MUTE GAME action on a push silences the roster chatter on that one game without touching your topic toggles — it flips your “following” state on the game. See below.

6. Muting one game without touching the toggles

If a specific game is getting loud but you don’t want to mute the whole topic:

  • From a push — tap the push’s secondary action (🔕 MUTE GAME). That game stops generating pushes for you until something important happens.
  • From the game itself — inside the game, you can stop following it; same effect.

This operates at the per-game level, separately from your Notifications section. Your topic toggles aren’t affected.
