Keeping your OKRs up-to-date is crucial for measuring progress and achieving goals. However, remembering to update them regularly can be a challenge. That's where email reminders come in! 

This guide will walk you through setting up automated email notifications that will keep you and your team on top of your OKRs.

> 📝 **Pro tip:** Encourage your team to set up individual notifications to personalize their reminder experience.

### How to set up email notifications

1. Navigate to the **Settings** tab > **Notifications**.
2. Turn on the toggle for **OKR update reminder**.
3. Select who should receive these reminders. You can specify people or teams in the *Collaborators* field. If a team is on the list of *Collaborators*, all users in the specified team will also receive emails.
4. Decide how often you want reminders to be sent. Common options include daily, weekly, or bi-weekly. Then, select a time that aligns with your team's work schedule for optimal impact.

> ⚠️ Remember that the time you set is in UTC. Below, you'll see the next email's scheduled delivery time in your local time zone.

Optionally, you can click **Send test email to myself** if you'd like to see what the email looks like.
