What you will learn: how the bell, the list, and the top banner work.

These are messages AlgoCatch writes (new features, downtime, fishing-season notes). They are not messages from other anglers.


Bell and unread badge

  • Tap the bell (Open notifications, or Open notifications, n unread).
  • A sheet lists items. Unread ones are emphasised.

If the list fails to load: error plus Retry.

Banner

A high-priority notification can appear as a banner across the top of the map (feature / info / warning styling).

  • Learn more if present
  • Mark as read
  • × to dismiss the banner (the item can still sit in the bell list)
