    We would love to help you but we need more information. Do you mean that you need to change settings in order to receive messages from FamilySearch? You will not lose what you have done as long as you don't delete your account.

    FamilySearch Notifications are brief messages from FamilySearch about activities, opportunities, and updates that might interest you. You can access them through the notification icon at the top of the screen, near your name. *Church members also receive information about temple reservations.

    Steps (website)

    1. Sign in to FamilySearch.org and click the Notifications icon. This is the bell or alarm-shaped figure at the top of the screen near your name.
    2. The FamilySearch Notifications preview appears. You can scroll through the messages as they appear inside the preview. Click the notification that you would like to read.
    3. To go to FamilySearch Notification's inbox, click SHOW ALL NOTIFICATIONS.
    4. On the left, you see a list of notifications. Click the notification that you would like to read. The notification message will appear to the right of the column.
    5. To delete one of the notifications, click the small box next to the notification.
      1. The delete icon will appear at the top of the column.
      2. Click the delete icon.

    Here are things that you will see under "Notifications". You can choose what you want to receive.
