The way you configure your notifications determines how and when you get alerted. Set how your notifications appear to help avoid receiving too much information.
Toaster notifications are browser-specific. They appear only when Desktop's browser tab is open in the background and not the active browser window or tab. Desktop becomes inactive in the following circumstances:
When Desktop isn’t active, a sound notification on the browser taskbar alerts you based on your configured settings. Click the notification to make Desktop active.
On Windows 10 and 11, notifications may not appear in the browser. To make the notifications appear correctly and not in the built-in notification pane, select the Google’s Chrome Don’t allow sites to send notification function. When finished, the notification is shown in your operating system's original format.
If you're not using Google Chrome, see your browser's documentation for instructions.
Desktop notifications are displayed in the built-in notification panel. Note the following notification behaviors:
Notifications keep you in the loop by alerting you to new events that require your attention, such as alerts, new messages, and state changes on Desktop.
