Using Twitter Alerts to get Notifications

Post date: Dec 20, 2016 2:8:29 PM

You can use Twitter notifications to get texts or emails when a particular account tweets something.

Here is how...

Copy the URL (Example: https://twitter.com/LaneyHSNews)

(Click on the Website address so it turns blue > 'right click' & select 'copy')

Go to Twitter.com

Find 'Settings' (finding it may differ according to what browser or what operating system you are using)

At school using Chrome - Click on the 'Bell'/'Notifications' at the top left

Under the 'Search' field, look for 'Settings'

If you want 'Texts', click on 'Mobile' (above 'Notifications) >

Check the box that says, 'Tweets from people you've enabled for mobile notifications'.

(NOTE: you can only receive text notifications from ONE account - the most recently linked one using your smartphone.)

If you don't want them during the night, etc. adjust the 'Sleep settings'

Click on 'Save changes'
