Exploring the Types of Notifications

You can receive notifications in three ways:

• System Notifications: Notifications that pop up on your screen when you receive new emails or chat messages.
• In-App Notifications: Notifications within the app that offer insights into various updates, including email reminders, shared information via Streams, assigned tasks, and other time-sensitive details.
• Sticky Notifications: Timely notifications that remain sticky on your Mac's desktop until you act on them.

• Sticky notifications will not be shown when Trident is in Do Not Disturb (DND) mode, but they will be shown when your Mac is in DND mode.

Managing Sticky Notifications

When you receive sticky notifications, you can choose to snooze or dismiss one or all of them.
