You can set which notifications you want to receive yourself. Some people like to stay informed throughout the day, while others prefer to review everything at once since their last visit.
Decide which notifications you want to receive
If you want to configure which notifications you receive, follow these steps:
- Hover your mouse over your own name in the navigation bar.
- Click on Settings.
- Go to Notifications:
The different types of notifications
General notifications are sent based on specific actions.
These notifications only concern new messages in channels. Notifications for other actions within these channels can be set via the General notification settings.
Changing the setting New messages and chat messages in groups affects two areas:
- Receiving notifications for new messages in groups;
- Receiving notifications for new chat messages within that specific group.
By default, the system does not send push notifications when you are online via the desktop app or a browser tab. Don’t want to miss any notifications? Choose to always receive push notifications on your mobile device, even if you have an active online session.
Enable this feature to receive push notifications via your web browser. After enabling, your browser will show a pop-up. If you grant permission, you will start receiving push notifications through the browser.
