# In-App Notifications

SampleHQ displays notifications in the top bar so you stay informed about order updates, shipping status changes, and system alerts without leaving the page you are working on.

## Notification bell

The bell icon in the top bar shows a badge with the count of unread notifications. Click the bell to open the notification dropdown.

## What you will see

The dropdown lists recent notifications in reverse chronological order. Each notification shows a brief message, the time it was created, and an indicator if it is unread.

## Types of in-app notifications

- New order created

- Order status changes (shipped, delivered)

- Shipping tracking updates

- Sample request form submissions

- AI watch triggers

- Plan limit warnings

- Import completion

## Marking as read

Notifications are marked as read when you view them. Old read notifications are automatically cleaned up over time.
