End of Life for SMS Notifications in Falcon Online

Upcoming Changes to Falcon Online Notifications

As part of our D2L's ongoing efforts to enhance the user experience, we would like to inform you of a change in the notification system. Starting July 2024, Falcon Online will no longer be supporting text messaging for notifications. The ability to add a mobile phone number and subscribe to SMS notifications in Falcon Online is going to be removed. Any mobile phone numbers in Falcon Online will be removed at that time.

Recommendations

To ensure that you continue to receive important updates and information, we recommend you select the instant notifications that you would like to receive by selecting the Email checkbox. Alternatively, you can opt to download the Pulse app, which offers a seamless and efficient way to stay informed about your courses and activities. This will be the recommended method of receiving notifications moving forward.

Notifications with email registration and email column with checkboxes selected

Your understanding and cooperation are appreciated as we strive to provide you with the best possible learning environment.

For more info on the Pulse app, view the Falcon Online InfoGuide for Faculty and the Falcon Online InfoGuide for Students

Pulse app is available for download on:

Apple

Android
