# Discord Notification Settings

## Server Specific Notifications

Firstly, you're going to want to click on the 3 dots next to the "Seller Circle" in the top left of Discord, then click "Notifications".

* [ ] **All messages:** Selecting this will not filter out any messages - you will receive notifications for every message.
* [ ] **Only @ mentions:** Enabling this will only push notifications to your phone when you are mentioned ie. @everyone or @username. No other notifications will be sent.
* [ ] **Suppress @everyone and @here:** Enabling this will stop you from being notified when @everyone or @here tags are used.
* [ ] **Mobile push notifications:** Enabling this will push notifications to your phone to be displayed for you - **Ensure this is enabled.**
* [ ] **Set up channel overrides:** You can also set channel-specific overrides so that you don't get inundated by unread messages for channels you are not interested in. These will only work for each channel you set it for - they're not essential to set up however, you can tweak your notification seatings much more precisely through these overrides.<br>

## Mobile Settings - iOS Notifications

Firstly, go to: Settings > Notifications > Discord. For the most part, configuring your notifications here is pretty simple and straightforward, however, we'll touch on a couple of settings which will make things much more smooth for you.\
\
**Allow Notifications:** Enable this to be notified when outside of Discord - *Think of this as the main on/off switch* for Discord

**Lock Screen:** This will enable your notification to be displayed on your screen when your iPhone is locked and not used.

**Banners:** This will enable notifications to pop up when you are using the your iPhone but outside of Discord.

**Badges:** Enabling this will allow the Discord app icon to update with a red notification with a number for the amount of notifications waiting to be read - ***This is very useful.***<br>

## Mobile Settings - Android Notifications

In your phones notifications settings, you will want to enable all notifications - *Think of this as the main on/off switch for Discord.*

From here, you can set the behaviour that the notifications will have on your phone.

**Notifications wake up your device:** This means that if your phone is locked and not being used the notification will 'wake up' your phone, turning your screen on and displaying the notification.

**Disable notifications light:** Turning this option on will prevent your notification light from lighting up notifying you.

**Disable notification vibration:** Enabling this will stop your phone from vibrating when being notified by Discord.

**Disable sounds:** Enabling this option will stop your phone from making a sound when notified.

Configuring your notification settings for either Mac or PC will follow a very similar pattern. The more important side to configure when it comes to notifications is your mobile device(s), however, tweaking your notifications for Discord on desktop is also useful!\
\
The general server-specific settings you configured here for Discord will usualyl be enough when it comes to desktop notifications.&#x20;
