The update feed

The update feed It’s where you’ll see all the updates from the boards you’re a member of, even if you weren’t specifically mentioned in the update or assigned a task. You can think of it like a news feed, where you can see everything your team has posted on the specific boards.

Bell symbol

You will receive notifications on the bell when someone…

• Mention a team you are part of in an update
• Reply to the update you wrote
• Subscribe to an item or board
• Deletes an item or board you are subscribed to
• Stores an item or board you subscribe to
