How to set up notifications for documents shared in Writer?
You can now receive email notifications whenever changes are made to a document that either you have shared or others have shared with you.
Turning on email notifications
When working on a collaborative document, collaborators are likely to make changes or add comments to it regularly. But what's tiresome is having to check the document frequently to see if any changes have been made. You can choose to receive email notifications to keep a track of all the changes made to your documents. This feature enables automatic notifications sent to your email, so you're always up-to-date on any changes made to the document.
