Pass Notifications

Get reminded before events, flights, check-ins, and expiring cards with configurable local notifications

2 min read

NeatPass can send you local push notifications before events, flights, hotel check-ins, and expiring store cards. All notifications stay on your device and never touch a server.

Enabling Notifications

1

Open Settings

Tap the gear icon to open NeatPass Settings.

2

Find Notifications

Scroll to the Notifications section.

3

Toggle On

Enable pass notifications.

4

Allow iOS Permission

iOS will prompt for notification access. Tap "Allow" so NeatPass can send reminders.

How It Works

All notifications are local. NeatPass schedules them on your device using the dates stored in each pass. No data is sent to any server.

Each pass type comes with a sensible default timing. Event tickets remind you before the event starts, boarding passes before departure, hotels before check-in, and store cards before they expire. You can adjust these defaults in Settings > Advanced.

Tapping a notification opens NeatPass and jumps straight to the relevant pass.

Notification Timing

Different pass types trigger notifications based on their specific dates.

Event Ticket

Reminds you before the event start time.

Boarding Pass

Reminds you before the departure time.

Hotel

Reminds you before the check-in time.

Rental

Reminds you before the pickup time.

Parking

Reminds you before the entry time.

Store Card

Warns you before the card expires.

Coupon

Warns you before the coupon expires.

Advanced Settings

In Settings > Advanced, you can change the default notification timing for each pass type. The following timing options are available:

15 minutes before
30 minutes before
1 hour before
2 hours before
3 hours before
6 hours before

Tips

Notification toggles are visible directly in Settings and on the Edit Pass screen
Store cards and coupons use expiration-based notifications instead of event-based ones
If you don't receive notifications, check that NeatPass has permission in iOS Settings > Notifications
Per-pass overrides let you silence notifications for passes you don't need reminders for
All scheduling happens locally, so notifications work even without an internet connection
