Depending on your Cerkl Broadcast Settings, you may also see the directory icon at the bottom of your screen. The Directory page inside the Cerkl Broadcast App contains a list of names and emails Subscribed to your Broadcast Instance. The names listed are dependent on Subscriber attributes that have been added to your Instance via the Subscriber Upload Process or via the API.
In the top right corner of the Directory page, you can search for a specific Subscriber. When you click on the Subscriber name/email, you may also see (depending on your Mobile App Settings) their phone number, job title, and location.

Dismiss: On your Notification page, click the three dots in the top right of the piece of Content > click Dismiss to remove the alert.
Note: When you view Content OR dismiss a notification, it will remove it from the home page (if the page is refreshed).
