Want to know the moment your favourite newsroom publishes? Turn on alerts for that outlet.

## Turn them on

1. Open the outlet's page on Rooted: tap its name or logo anywhere.
2. Tap the **Alerts** bell beside Follow.
3. The first time, your phone or browser asks to allow notifications. Say yes.

The bell turns green and reads **Alerts on**.

## What you get

When the outlet publishes, you get one notification with its newest headline. If it publishes several pieces in an hour, they arrive together, as "and 2 more", so a busy newsroom cannot flood you.

Rooted never sends you more than six notifications a day across all your alerts and followed stories.

## Turn them off

Tap the bell again, or go to **You**, **Notifications**, **Post alerts** and tap the outlet to remove it. The switch at the top of that page turns notifications off on this device altogether.

Alerts need a free Rooted account. Turn notifications on for each phone or computer you want them on.
