# Notifications

> Send messages to issued passes from the console: to one pass, a selection, or a whole project, immediately or scheduled.

Notifications let you reach people who already carry your pass. Holders see the message where the pass lives:

* **Apple Wallet** shows a lock-screen banner and keeps the message on the back of the pass.
* **Google Wallet** sends a push notification and keeps the message with the pass in the app.

Only **issued** passes can receive notifications, and holders don't need to do anything: delivery happens through the wallet platforms automatically.

## Send to one pass

Open the pass and switch to its **Notifications** tab, then choose **Send notification**. Write the message and pick the target platforms (both by default). For Google Wallet you can add an optional **title** shown above the message; Apple Wallet notifications have no title.

## Send to several passes

Select passes on the **Passes** list and choose **Notify** in the action bar. Every selected pass receives the same message, and each records its own delivery result.

## Broadcasts

A **broadcast** sends one message to **every issued pass in a project**, whether that's ten passes or ten thousand. Use it for news that concerns everyone in a campaign: a venue change, a rescheduled date, a last-minute offer.

From the project page choose **New broadcast**, write the message, and send or schedule it. The **Broadcasts** card on the project page lists every broadcast with its status:

* **Scheduled**: waiting for its send time, and can still be cancelled.
* **Sending**: Passlet is handing the message to each pass.
* **Sent to N passes**: done. Every pass that was issued at send time got its own copy.

Each recipient pass shows that copy, with per-platform delivery results, on its own **Notifications** tab, marked with a broadcast badge. Passes issued after a broadcast was sent do not receive it.

## Schedule and cancel

Turn on **Schedule for later** in the send dialog to deliver at a chosen time. Scheduled notifications and broadcasts sit at the top of their timeline and can be **cancelled** there until they start sending. Once delivery has started, a message cannot be recalled; send a follow-up instead.

## Track delivery

The timeline shows one entry per notification with its overall status:

* **Scheduled**: not yet due.
* **Sending**: delivery in progress.
* **Sent**: delivered on every targeted platform.
* **Partly sent**: one platform delivered, the other failed (the error is shown on the entry).
* **Failed**: no targeted platform could be delivered.
* **Skipped**: the pass doesn't exist on any targeted platform.

<Note>
  Google Wallet accepts at most **3 notifications per pass in 24 hours** (a Google platform cap);
  Apple Wallet has no such limit. A broadcast counts toward each recipient pass's cap.

## Automate it

Everything here is also available on the public API, including scheduling and broadcasts. See [Pass notifications](/developers/pass-notifications).
