# Comments and notifications

Communicate live with your teammates directly in Kreo. Share your thoughts by leaving comments and mentioning colleagues right in the app.

# **What is Comments?**

Thanks to the **Comments** feature you’re able to communicate live with your teammates not leaving Kreo. This is a great way to always keep up-to-date and reduce the number of in-person meetings**.** Share your thoughts and notes by leaving comments and mentioning colleagues right in the app.

## Where can I leave comments?

You can start discussions by leaving comments in the following parts of Kreo Software:

-   Project
    
-   Drawing
    
-   Report
    

At the top of every comment, you’ll see a special icon reflecting which part of Kreo the comment is added to. Near the icon, there’s the name of your project, drawing or report with the cell name. It helps you to easily check where the comment was left.

## Mentions

You can easily mention your teammates in the relevant conversation.

To do this, start adding a comment and use **@** for mentioning others. When the teammate is mentioned, the person automatically gets a notification that he was mentioned.
