Summary
Linear lets you control which emails reach you from the Notifications page in your personal settings. You can see the Email status at a glance and switch individual emails on or off with a toggle. That keeps your inbox quiet without leaving Linear.
Step-by-step guide
Step 1
Open your email notification settings
Open your personal settings and select **Notifications**. Under **Push notifications**, the **Email** row shows its current state, here "Enabled for all notifications". Hover **Email** to see the link that opens its settings.
Step 2
Find the email toggles
Scroll down to **Updates from Linear**. This section lists the emails you can subscribe to, including **Changelog newsletter** and **Marketing and onboarding**. Each row has a toggle on the right, and the **Changelog newsletter** toggle starts off here.
Step 3
Turn an email on
Click the **Changelog newsletter** toggle. Its description says you receive an email twice a month highlighting new features and improvements, so turn it on only if you want that.
Step 4
Confirm the toggle is on
Check that the **Changelog newsletter** toggle now shows as switched on. The change applies as soon as you click, so there is no save button to look for.
Step 5
Turn it off again
Click the **Changelog newsletter** toggle a second time to switch it back off. Use the same click on any other toggle in **Updates from Linear** to disable that email.
Why this matters
You want product news to arrive by email, or you want it gone. Knowing where the Email row and the toggles live lets you change that in under a minute, so your inbox shows only the messages you chose.
