Choose your notifications
Turn task reminders, mentions, client comments, the daily brief and the weekly email on or off, plus timer sound and browser alerts.
Your notification settings are personal. They change what reaches you, not what anyone else gets.
Steps
- Go to Settings > Preferences.
- Under Alerts & digests, switch each one on or off:
- Task reminders: the morning before a task of yours is due.
- Mentions: when someone mentions you in a comment or task.
- Comments: when a client comments on a procurement item you're working on. It also covers comment updates in your email digests.
- Daily AI Brief: your AI morning summary on Home.
- Weekly summary: a Monday morning email with your hours, tasks and time by project for the week just gone. If you lead projects, it also covers the project lead's weekly email.
- Click Save changes.
What happens next
- Switching off Daily AI Brief removes the brief from Home and stops one being written for you.
Timer sound
Under Timer, switch Timer sound on or off. It plays a sound when a running task reaches its target time. It saves straight away, for this browser only.
Browser notifications
- Under Browser Notifications, switch on Push notifications.
- Allow notifications when your browser asks.
You then get a pop-up for mentions and assignments, even when the Techstyles tab is closed. This applies to this browser only. Switch it off the same way.
Good to know
- The switches under Alerts & digests are not saved until you click Save changes.
- Assignments, approvals, escalations and risk alerts always arrive in the bell. Only mentions, task reminders and client comments can be switched off.
- If your browser says notifications are blocked, allow them for Techstyles in your browser's site settings, then try again.
