Each of these cards contains specific options that allow you to take action on the notification without having to navigate to a separate section.
For example, an appointment reminder will carry with it an option to check-in and a button that allows you to get directions to the location.To dismiss/remove a notification card, press x on top of each card.
- To configure your mobile app to display notification cards, go to > Settings > Notifications on home screen. Switch the toggle for the events for which you wish to see the notification cards.
