Can Magento 2 Stock Notification Send Notifications via Email or SMS

Yes, Magento 2 Stock Notification can send notifications through email by default. When a product is out of stock, customers can subscribe to get an alert. Once the product is back, the system sends an automated email to notify them. Magento 2 does not send SMS notifications by default. To enable SMS alerts, you need a third-party extension or an SMS gateway integration. Magento 2 Stock Notification allows customers to get instant stock updates via text. Using both email and SMS keeps customers informed and improves their shopping experience.
