If you want to be notified of changes and comments made on a particular page by other people, you can choose to follow that page.
How to follow
- You automatically follow pages you create or edit.
- Otherwise, you can follow a page by clicking
Updates
at the top right on the page, and switching on the Follow This Page
toggle.

🎒 Tip: You can quickly unfollow pages in the Following
section of All Updates
in your sidebar, so you can curate your notifications to be more relevant.

On mobile
- Tap the clock icon at the top right of any page.
- Tap
This Page
and turn on the toggle to the right of Follow This Page
.
Notifications
- Edits and comments made on a followed page (even if they don't involve you), are aggregated in the
All Updates
menu in your sidebar under Following
. Here's what they show:
- Text that has been added is highlighted in blue.
- Gray strikethrough text shows what has been removed.
- You can click on any edit to jump right to where it was made on the page.
- Revision history is also visible on the page itself when you click
Updates
at the top right.
- If revisions are made when you're not logged into Notion, you'll receive an email notification that shows them. Revisions don't trigger push or other types of notifications.
- You can unfollow a page at any time, even if you created it.
Updates menu
The Updates
menu at the top of any page (the same as This Page
on mobile when you click the clock icon) is page-specific, and only useful for three things:
- It keeps a running list of revisions and comments made on the page.
- You can click the clock icon to the right of any of these revisions to view the version of the page that existed at that point in time in
Page History
.
