Running your table

Approval alerts on your phone

Get a phone alert when something needs your OK. Off until the owner turns it on; the alert never carries the text of the request.

RoundSeat is in early access and invite-only. These guides are for invited members; screens may change as we build.

Beta. Use Send a test to see that it arrives on your phone.

  1. The owner opens Settings, finds Approval alerts on your phone and clicks Turn on for this table.
  2. Each owner or admin opens the same card on the phone or computer they want alerts on and clicks Turn on for this device, then Send a test.
  3. On an iPhone or iPad, first add RoundSeat to your Home Screen (Share, then Add to Home Screen), open it from there and come back to the card.

Alerts go to owners and admins only. An alert says who wants to do what kind of thing, and never includes the text of the request. To stop them, use Turn off on this device, or the owner can turn the table off.
