Change your notification preferences
There are two types of notifications you may receive from Lyft. You have the option to receive via text message or push notification (a pop-up on your mobile device):
- Account and trip updates inform you about ride requests and account information. They're necessary for using the Lyft app and can be set to text or push notification, but can't be turned off.
- Discounts and news messages provide info about new features and promotions. These alerts can be set to text, push notification, or turned off completely.
To change your notification preferences, follow these steps:
- Open the main menu, then tap 'Account.'
- Tap 'Settings.'
- Tap 'Privacy.'
- Tap 'Notification Preferences.'
- Select the type of message you want to receive for each type of notification. You'll be prompted to turn push notifications on in your phone's settings if they're currently disabled.
If you would like to turn off all Lyft push notifications, you will need to do so from your device's settings.
