# Creating Urgent Announcements
## Urgent Announcements let Building Managers share time-sensitive updates with residents and tenants, and are sent instantly to the MYBOS Resident Web and Mobile app as push notifications
Urgent Announcements can be utilised by Building Managers as a tool to quickly and reliably communicate time-sensitive information to your Resident/Tenants immediately.
Urgent Announcements are pushed out immediately to the MYBOS Resident Web and Mobile application as a push notification if the app is installed and notifications are turned on.
