I no longer receive appointment reminders
If you have an upcoming consultation at UZA, you will receive a reminder by text message two days in advance. Those who have downloaded the UZA@home app will receive a notification from UZA@home to remind them of their appointment instead of this text message. At least if you allow the UZA@home app to send you notifications. Those who do not allow notifications will still receive a text message.
How do I allow notifications from the UZA@home app?
When you first use the app, UZA@home will automatically ask if you want to receive notifications. Click on 'Yes'.
Did you accidentally click 'No'? Go to your settings to enable access.
