Questions

Good to know.

Is it free?

Yes. There is nothing to buy and no subscription.

Do I need an account?

No. The app is the website, saved to your phone with its own icon.

What will I be notified about?

Only new essays and articles from Professor Hakawati. Nothing else.

How do I turn alerts off?

Use the Unsubscribe from alerts control below to remove this device from the notification list. You can also disable notifications in your phone settings, but that alone does not erase a saved subscription.

What is stored?

Only an anonymous delivery address for your device, so alerts can reach it. See the Privacy Policy.

The essays the app will alert you to are collected in Public Scholarship.
