You must visit the Rave website to enroll your mobile phone number in the service. After entering your number, Rave will send you a confirmation text message with a code you must enter on their site. Once that is complete, you can come back to the Text Notifications tab in the Contact and Privacy Info app to verify that you are set up to receive Rave alerts from UWF. You may need to refresh your screen by clicking the "Refresh" button or the refresh button on your browser to load the latest information. Once you are subscribed, your page should look like this:

To receive secure messages, you will need to flip the toggle switch to the right so that it appears blue. Note: this does not automatically subscribe you to these messages. You must first enter the six-digit code that UWF has sent to your phone via text message and click the "Verify" button. If you need to re-send a verification text, you can click the "Send a verification text" link to the right of the "Verify" button.

Verifying to receive secure messagesImage Modified

After entering this code, the web page should reload and display a green checkmark with a "verified number" label. The toggle switch will also appear blue. This means that you have successfully enrolled in secure messaging with UWF.
