Notifications

In this article you'll learn how to manage your in-app notifications, view your Auto Apply inbox credentials, and choose which types of emails are forwarded to your personal inbox.

Written by Sofía

The Notifications section in your Account Settings lets you control two things: the alerts that appear in your notification bell inside AIApply, and the emails from your Auto Apply inbox that get forwarded to your personal email.

In-app notifications

These are the alerts that appear in your notification bell inside AIApply. You can turn each type on or off independently.

  • Application updates — when Auto Apply submits a job on your behalf

  • Job-search summaries — results of each job-matching run (Review or Auto mode)

  • Inbox replies & interviews — recruiter replies and interview invitations

  • Moments of delight — hired and other milestone notifications

  • Plan & credit alerts — low credits and upcoming renewals

  • Tips and tricks — onboarding hints and best-practice nudges

Toggle any category on or off based on what you'd like to see in your notification bell.

Email notifications

The Email notifications section has two parts: your Auto Apply inbox credentials, and forwarding to your personal inbox.

Your Auto Apply inbox

At the top of the Email notifications section, you'll see the email address and password of the Auto Apply inbox created for your account. We use these credentials to apply on your behalf and to create accounts on company sites when an application requires one.

You can copy the email or reveal the password if you ever need to sign in directly.

Notify me in my personal inbox

To start receiving notifications in your personal email when a new relevant message arrives in your Auto Apply inbox, enable the Notify me in my personal inbox toggle. Once enabled, you can choose which types of emails you want to be notified about using the categories below.

Each notification is a lightweight message that lets you know something new has arrived. To read or reply to the original email, click through to your Auto Apply inbox — that's where the full message lives.

  • Interview invites — an invitation to schedule or attend an interview

  • Offers and hires — a job offer, contract, or welcome message

  • Interview follow ups — feedback or next steps after an interview

  • Assessment invites — an invitation to complete an assessment, test, or coding challenge

  • Assessment results — your results or feedback from an assessment

  • Application confirmations — confirmation that your application was received

  • Rejections — a notice that your application was not moving forward

  • Equal opportunity forms — a request to complete a voluntary equal opportunity or diversity form

  • Other updates — any other application-related email that couldn't be categorized

Enable only the categories you want to see in your personal inbox — everything else stays inside your Auto Apply inbox.

Saving your changes

Once you've made your selections, click Save at the top right to apply your updates.

If you're not seeing notifications

If you're expecting a notification and it doesn't arrive:

  • Check the specific label is enabled in your notification settings — rejections, confirmations, and interview follow-ups are separate categories

  • Check your Auto Apply inbox first to confirm the email actually arrived

  • Search your spam folder — notifications sometimes land there

  • If you use a Microsoft or university email address, check your Quarantine folder (not Junk) and mark AIApply as a safe sender

If the notification still doesn't appear, contact support with your email address, which notification type is missing, the date and sender of the specific email, and confirmation that you checked spam and quarantine.
