Shared PDF sending multiple notifications

I shared a PDF of a book I'm working on with the author to get their comments and edits. it seems if she works on the PDF for a few minutes and then takes a break, I get a notification email after each session which is starting ot overload my inbox. Is there a way to turn off the email notifications so that I just get one when she is done? It's a 200 page book and she's only through about 40 pages and already I've gotten 10 or 15 email notifications. I like the shared feature but the email notifications are too much.

 

Thanks--1st time using this feature so not familiar with all the nuances

On the notification email, if you scroll to the footer of the email there's a link for 'Stop notifications for reviews.' This navigates to an Adobe account page where under 'Collaboration' you can chance the notifications for Acrobat off. This seems to have worked for me.

Hi @KB_0,

 

Hope you are doing well.

 

Thanks for sharing what worked for you! Marking this as a correct answer for future users to use as a reference.

 

Also, my personal preference is to use the Daily Digest feature, which allows me to receive a single email with everything under one roof for the work that happened the previous day.

I agree that the email notifications are too much and there's no way to turn them off. This ought to be an optional feature. It makes Shared Review UNUSABLE for longer documents. Who needs their mail clogged with a hundred email notifications when all you need to do is open the file to see the new comments or to check the notification bell at the top?
