How to Enable and Disable Desktop Notifications

All Users

Settings

As a Signal Vine user, you can choose to be notified of new messages three different ways: email, text, or desktop notifications. The first two are sent out as once-a-day summaries, but desktop notifications are real time pop-ups that notify you every time a new message comes in - no matter what tab of your browser you're currently viewing.

To manage your notification preferences, navigate to Your Preferences by clicking on the gear icon at the top right of your screen and choosing Settings from the drop down menu. 

If the Receive desktop notifications checkbox is greyed out, navigate to the URL bar at the top of your screen and click the lock symbol on the left side. Then within the Notifications dropdown, select Allow. Refresh the page for the changes to take effect.
