Manage notifications and quiet hours

Choose what you are notified about, whether it also arrives by email or as a push notification, and set quiet hours when your phone stays silent.

Saloon tells you what is happening in your salon: a new appointment, a cancellation, a leave request, a new review. Everything arrives under the bell at the top. You choose what you hear about and whether it also arrives by email or as a push notification. You set this per workspace.

View your notifications

  • Click the bell at the top for your latest notifications. Click a notification to open what it is about.
  • Mark all as read gets you up to date in one go.
  • View all notifications opens the full list. There you show only what is Unread, and clear what you have already read with the option to remove read notifications.
  • If you work in several salons, In your other salons shows what came in there.

  1. Click the gear (Notification settings) in the bell's window. Or choose Workspaces in your account menu, click Manage next to your workspace and Manage next to Notifications.
  2. Under I want notifications about, choose My activities or My activities and team member activities, and under For locations choose which locations.
  3. Switch on each notification you want to hear about. Tick Email or Push notifications to receive it outside Saloon as well.
  4. Click Save.

Types of notification

  • Appointments: a new appointment, an appointment confirmed, rescheduled or cancelled, a client who did not show, a changed status, a new name on the waiting list, and Appointment coming up: a push notification 30 minutes before your appointment starts.
  • Team: a leave request, your own leave request reviewed, a new task and an accepted invitation.
  • Sales: a completed sale.
  • Reviews: a new review from a client.
  • Stock: a product that drops to or below its low stock level, and every Monday morning a summary of what is running low.

Push notifications and quiet hours

  • Push notifications on this device: you switch them on per device and per browser. They arrive even when Saloon is closed.
  • Quiet hours: turn on the switch and choose From and Until. You get no push notifications in that window; emails still arrive.
  • Push notifications and quiet hours apply to your whole account, so to your other workspaces too.
