Manage notifications in Teams
Microsoft Teams offers different ways to access, receive, and manage notifications. These settings include how, when, and where your notifications appear, custom settings for channels and chat, appearance and sounds, turning off specific messages, and so on.
On a Windows 10 machine, to manage your notifications, select your profile in the top right of Teams, then select Settings
From the drop down list, select Notifications
Manage email notifications
In Missed activity emails, choose how frequently you receive emails for a missed activity or turn them off entirely. Note: These emails don't contain notifications from private channels at this time.
Manage notification sounds
To turn off or turn on notification sounds, toggle Play sounds with notifications to on.
Manage notifications from Activity
Go to Activity on the left side of Teams, hover over the notification that you want to change, and then select the eliipses () .
From here, mark a notification as read or unread, and on channel notifications you can adjust what kind of activity you get notified about for that specific channel.
Chats and Channels notifications
Select the drop down next to desired notification type, then chooseShow in activity and banner to recevie an activity and pop-up banner on your screen. Do Show in Activity for only an activity notification and no banner. All notifications for that type of activity will be sent to Activity , which you can find at the top left corner of Teams.
Note: The app will still flash on desktop taskbar when notifications arrive, but no pop-up will show on your desktop.
Turn off notifications for specific conversations and channels
In a channel conversation, go to the top right corner of the original message and select the ellipses (...) then press "mute".
As with muting a chat, turning off notifications to a channel conversation will stop updates for that specific conversation.
Note: You'll still receive notifications if someone directly @mentions you.
