Recipe Room uses notifications and messages to help you keep up with activity around your work and conversations.

​
Notifications

The notification screen brings together activity such as:
  • New followers
  • Likes on posts or recipes
  • Comments on posts or recipes
  • Replies to comments
  • Mentions in comments
  • Someone forking your recipe
  • New messages
Unread items are marked in the app. You can open an individual notification, mark it as read, or mark everything as read.

​
Push Notifications

If push notifications are enabled on your device, Recipe Room can send alerts for important activity such as messages or community interactions. If you’re not receiving push notifications, check your device notification settings and make sure Recipe Room is allowed to send notifications. Fine-grained notification preference switches inside Recipe Room are still being introduced. If a switch is shown as unavailable, use your phone settings for now.

​
Direct Messages

Messages let you talk with another creator one-to-one. Start a new message and search by their display name or username. You can send text messages of up to 2,000 characters and share a post, recipe, or collection directly into the conversation. Tap a shared card to open the original content. If it has since been deleted or made unavailable, the card may no longer open. A one-to-one chat is unavailable when either account has blocked the other.

​
Group Messages

Group conversations are for several people. Give the group a name and add at least two other participants. Use group chats for planning shoots, sharing recipe ideas, discussing collections, or collaborating with other creators.

​
Leaving a Conversation

Deleting a conversation removes it from your inbox. It doesn’t erase the other participants’ copy. In a group, removing the conversation also means leaving that group. Blocking someone closes the one-to-one conversation for new messages. Unblocking them doesn’t restore any follows that were removed by the block.

​
Message Safety

  • Do not send passwords, verification links, payment details, or other sensitive information.
  • Block an account if you need to stop direct contact.
  • Report the account or relevant content separately if it may break the Community Guidelines.
  • If there’s an immediate safety concern, read Safety.
