About notifications in SAFE for Android - F-Secure Community
<main> <article class="userContent"> <p> </p>About notifications in SAFE for Android <p>The F-Secure SAFE app sends you notifications on certain app activities. For best protection, we recommend to keep the default settings on. </p> <p>The notifications from the SAFE app are ON by default. Once you receive a notification, an indicator icon appears on your phone's status bar. To see more information about the notifications, open the notification panel by dragging the status bar downwards. </p> <p>As for all apps on your Android device, you can customize the notification settings for the SAFE app. To access the notification settings for SAFE, open the F-Secure SAFE app, tap the menu in the top-left corner of the screen and select <strong>Settings</strong> > <strong>App notifications</strong> (a link under Notifications). </p> <p>To view notification category-specific settings, tap on the desired notification category. </p> <h3 data-id="app-icon-badges">App icon badges</h3> <p>If you have allowed app icon badges in the system notification settings, a badge appears on the SAFE app icon as soon as there is a notification from SAFE. You can even select the notification categories which you want to receive notifications from. </p> <p>The badges can be shown with or without numbers. The badge disappears as soon as you dismiss the notification. To display icon badges on app icons when apps receive notifications: </p> <div> <ol><li>Tap <strong>Settings</strong> > <strong>Notifications</strong> to open the system notification settings. </li> <li>Tap the <strong>App icon badges</strong> switch to activate it. </li> <li>For more App icon badge settings, tap on <strong>App icon badges</strong>. </li> </ol><p><strong>Note:</strong> When F-Secure makes changes to the notification feature and updates the F-Secure SAFE app, you may see the following system message in the App notifications settings page: </p><pre class="code codeBlock" spellcheck="false" tabindex="0">11 categories deleted</pre> This is a default system message which requires no actions from you. </div> <br> </article> </main>
