Notification center
An in-app list of recent notifications and updates.
A notification center is a screen or panel inside the app where the user sees past notifications — comments, mentions, system alerts. Usually opened from a bell icon in the header that shows a small badge with the unread count.
Group items by type, show timestamps, and let the user mark single items or all as read. Tapping an item should jump straight to the source — opening the relevant chat, post, or order, never just dismissing it.
