Summary
The Notifications Team is building Roblox's next generation notifications platform to allow our teams and developers to easily build respectful and helpful notification experiences for our users.
These notifications include Push, In-App/In-Experience, Messages, Email, and SMS - basically any way a user is contacted both on-platform and off-platform. The mission of our team is to connect the right user, to the right content, at the right time.
