# What types of Notifications can be sent to residents via the Manager's Portal?

## This will depend on the systems you have installed.

The Manager's Portal lets you send notifications to individuals, a group, or all residents.  Depending on the systems installed, they may display on screen or be read aloud. The table below indicates whether notifications and alerts can be sent to the devices in your village.

**Please Note: Delivery of messages and alerts are best effort and cannot be guaranteed as it may be affected by various factors, including third-party networks beyond our control.**

#### Notifications:
