Reminders and notifications are effective ways to improve compliance with data collection, remind participants who forgot to complete the daily questionnaire, and record post-activity data. They can also be used to send alerts when participants  are reporting an injury or when a new message or note has been sent.


By default, FITSTATS sends reminders via email, push notification and, if your account has SMS sending enabled (paid option), text messages.


Participants and staff users can select the way they receive these messages by opening their user profile, scrolling down to the Receive alerts & notifications section, selecting the sending method of their choice and clicking Save.


Staff can select the sending method of their choice but can also deselect all sending methods. In this case, no reminders, alerts and notifications will be sent. Participants must select at least one sending method


To limit spam and overwhelming participants and staff with unwanted messages, only use one reminder sending method (email, or sms or push notification), and only activate the most important reminders.


To configure reminders and notifications, open School/Group Preferences-Reminders and select Activate.
