Edit notification settings

Pinterest sends you notifications when you have new updates or messages. You receive notifications in three different ways:

On Pinterest: These notifications appear on the Pinterest app or when you use Pinterest on your desktop.

By email: These notifications are sent to you via email.

By push notifications: These notifications appear on your phone.

We do our best to only send you notifications we think you’ll want to read. You can change your preferences in your settings or unsubscribe from within an email.
