Unread notifications are marked with a red dot (2). The number on the bottom of the page shows the amount of new notifications (3).

If you tap a notification (4), it will be marked as read and the element, e.h. projectdetails or taskdetails, will open and you can edit them.

Push-Notifications

If the app is closed you will get normal push notifications on your phone.

In-App Notifications

You can find the search in the menu to the right.

If you click on a search result, the element (e.g. task, project, etc.) will open directly from search. This way you can directly edit e.g. tasks or projects without leaving the search.
