The MY PINGS bank in Settings, annotated: the Pingtoasts reach pill, the Silent Mode and Quiet Hours pill, and the per-category pills that decide what reaches you.

--- title: "Pings — Controls" description: "Every switch you own: the MY PINGS toggle bank explained pill by pill, the four Pingtoasts modes, enabling lock-screen push on iPhone step by step, and Silent Mode." category: "pings" keywords: ["pings settings", "my pings", "pingtoasts", "3d pingtoasts", "push notifications", "silent mode", "ios push"] last_updated: "2026-07-12" --- # Pings — Controls Everything about pings is under your control, and all of it lives in one place: the **MY PINGS** row in Settings. This page walks the whole bank, pill by pill. **How:** Open Settings — the MY PINGS row holds every switch. - **①︎ ⇡ Pingtoasts** — tap to cycle the four reach modes, from inbox-only up to native lock-screen push. - **②︎ ⏾ Silent Mode** — the third state is Quiet Hours: native push sleeps inside your nightly window; in-app pings keep landing. - **③︎ The category pills** — each family of pings has its own switch; the table below walks every one. ## The Pingtoasts pill ⇡ — how far pings reach Tap the ⇡ pill to cycle through four modes: | Mode | What happens | | --- | --- | | **OFF** | Nothing pops anywhere. Pings still land silently in the inbox. | | **ON** | Regular Pingtoasts — live in-app toasts + the connect-icon badge while PD is open. No permissions needed; works everywhere, including plain mobile Safari. | | **3D** | Native lock-screen notifications that reach you even when PD is closed. No in-app toasts. | | **COMBO** | Both at once. | ## Enabling 3D Pingtoasts on iPhone 3D Pingtoasts are real iOS notifications, so Apple requires two things — once: 1. **Install PD to your Home Screen.** Open PD in Safari → share sheet → **Add to Home Screen**. (PD is built to be lived in as an installed app — see [The Shell](/docs/app/the-shell).) 2. **Open the installed app** → Settings → MY PINGS → cycle the ⇡ pill to **3D**. A small "Enable 3D Pingtoasts?" bubble appears — tap **Yes**, and allow when iOS asks. That's it. Your PriceSprite now delivers your pings to the lock screen — its face is the notification's title line, the ping is the body, wearing the same glyph it wears in the app. Every device you do this on is registered separately, so your phone and your iPad can both receive. Turning it off is the same pill: cycle past 3D/COMBO back to ON or OFF. iOS notification settings for the installed app work too. ## The category pills — what you care about Nine pills, each an honest filter. **A pill turned off silences that category EVERYWHERE — inbox, toasts, and phone alike.** | Pill | Glyph | What it lets through | | --- | --- | --- | | MINTS | ✦ | Collecting activity — mints and sales in your orbit | | LISTS | ✹ | Listings, plus wishlist hits | | OFFERS | ✶ | The offer family — made, accepted, countered | | XFERS | ✸ | Transfers | | Mutuals | ⚭ | Relevant activity from your mutuals — the people you follow who follow you back. Your inner circle's mints, buys, listings, and sales. | | Artists | ✺ | Your **starred artists** acting: they list, they sell, they drop. Star an artist from the Artists list or their profile title (long-press). | | Projects | ⬚ | Your **starred projects** moving: mints, listings, sales inside them. Star a project by long-pressing its title. | | Traits | ⨝ | Outputs carrying your **starred traits** getting listed or sold. Star a trait by long-pressing its value pill on any project page. | | Rarity | ❖ | Rarity-tier movement — an Output ranked in the **top-10 rarest** of a project **you hold Outputs in** gets minted, listed, or sold. The comps your bag actually cares about. | Things aimed directly at you — someone following you, your achievements, reminders you set — aren't category-gated; they always land in the inbox. ## Silent Mode ⏾ The crescent pill is the master mute: nothing pops, nothing buzzes, on any device, until you flip it back. Pings keep recording silently the whole time, so returning from a quiet day means your inbox is complete — it just never interrupted you. ## What to expect, honestly - With everything ON and 3D enabled, PD will still push you **at most a few ambient notifications an hour** — the budget is platform-enforced, not a preference you can misconfigure. Money aimed at you always gets through. - The unread count on the PINGS panel only ever counts what you truly haven't scrolled past. - Preferences follow your **account**, not your browser — set them once, they hold across devices (push registration itself is per-device, by nature). ## Further reading - [Overview](/docs/pings/overview) — what fires and the inbox model - [Artist Push](/docs/pings/artist-push) — the artists' monthly channel - [Settings & Display](/docs/app/settings-and-display) — the rest of the settings bank
