Choose who gets household alerts

1 min read · Updated Oct 29, 2026

The household owner decides who receives each household alert, like low stock, and whether it's a shared to-do. Each person then chooses how they hear about it: email, bell or push.

  1. Go to Settings and open the Household tab.
  2. Under Notifications, find the alert, like Low stock.
  3. Under Who gets it, choose Owner only, Everyone, or Choose people and tick them.
  4. Choose Shared or Each person.
  5. Tick Starts as a to-do if it's a job someone needs to do.
  6. Select Save.

What the options mean

  • Shared: when one person checks it off, it's done for everyone.
  • Each person: everyone clears their own copy.
  • Starts as a to-do: the alert stays in the bell as something to check off, like ordering more food.

Alerts you can set here

Low stock, Expired medications, Vet refill requests sent, Someone joined the household, Invites declined and Invite codes locked.

Dose reminders aren't set here. Each routine decides who's reminded, under Reminders › Who gets it.

Note: Medication alerts only reach people whose role includes Manage medications & Cabinet, even if they're chosen here.
