In the iPhone app, guito can notify you on the phone itself when a bank connection needs you. Phone notifications go along with the emails: in Profile -> Settings -> Notifications, each topic has a Phone switch, separate from its Email switch. On the website, the same switches are in Settings, on the General tab, under Notifications, in the Phone column. The phone switches apply to your account, so they cover every phone signed in to it. Phone notifications are not available on Android yet.

Turn on notifications

1

Open notifications

In the mobile app, open Profile -> Settings -> Notifications.
2

Allow notifications

At the top of the screen, tap Turn on notifications and allow them when your phone asks. Your phone asks only once.
You can also turn them on right after connecting or renewing a bank: the Connection complete (or Connection renewed) screen shows the row Alert me before the connection expires. Tap Turn on and allow notifications when your phone asks. The row only appears while your phone has not asked you yet and you have not turned off the expiring connection alert. If you declined, the screen shows Notifications are off. Tap that row to open your phone’s settings and allow guito’s notifications.

​
Which notices you receive

All of them are on by default. Tapping a bank notice opens the connection in the app, where you can renew it.

​
What notifications show

Your lock screen is visible to other people. That’s why guito’s notifications never show amounts, balances, account numbers, or the name of the bank or brokerage. For example: “The connection to one of your banks expires in 7 days.” The details appear in the app after you tap the notice.

​
At night

Between 10 p.m. and 8 a.m. (mainland Portugal time), notifications arrive silently: they don’t make a sound or light up the screen, and they wait for you in Notification Center. When notifications come to Android, they do the same: at night they arrive on guito’s silent channel.

​
Turn off a notice

Turn off the topic’s Phone switch in Profile -> Settings -> Notifications. Turning off a notice on your phone doesn’t turn off the email for the same notice, and the other way around. To stop all of guito’s notifications on your phone, turn them off in your phone’s settings.

​
FAQ
