What Triggers a Push
SuperDuper only pushes for items that are both urgent and time-sensitive. The bar is high on purpose — a push should feel earned.
- A practice, game, or event cancelled or moved at the last minute
- A deadline that just arrived — a permission slip due tomorrow, a payment due today
- A schedule change that affects the next day or two
- A heads-up that needs attention before it's too late to act on
Routine newsletters, general announcements, and low-priority FYIs don't trigger a push. Those live on your dashboard and in your Week Ahead email.
Mobile Only
Push notifications come through the iOS and Android apps. They aren't available on the web.
If you only use SuperDuper in a browser, you won't get pushes — but you'll see everything on your dashboard when you open it, and the Week Ahead email still arrives on Sunday.
Tap to Open the Item
Tapping a push takes you straight to the item it's about. You land on the full details — time, place, related emails, anything else SuperDuper has — without hunting for it.
Turning Them On or Off
In the app, go to Settings > Notifications. Under Push Notifications, you'll see Time-Sensitive Alerts. Toggle it to fit how you want to be interrupted.
Each person in your family controls their own. Turning yours off doesn't affect your partner's.
You can also adjust at the OS level — iOS Settings > Notifications > SuperDuper, or Android Settings > Apps > SuperDuper > Notifications — if you want to change sounds, grouping, or lock-screen behavior.
We're adding more notification types over time. When new ones roll out, they'll appear in Settings so you can decide per-type what you want to hear about.
