Where to find the settings
Open Settings → Notifications from the gear icon in the bottom left, or press, (comma) anywhere in the app. The panel groups every toggle Slashy supports.
Categories
Slashy splits notifications into five categories. Each has its own on/off and its own delivery channel (desktop, browser, mobile push).| Category | What triggers it |
|---|---|
| New email | An email arrives in an importance label you’ve opted in to. |
| Calendar | Upcoming meeting reminders and changes to events you’re on. |
| Agent activity | Your AI agent finishes a task, drafts a reply, or needs input. |
| Comments | A teammate @-mentions you or replies to a comment on a shared thread. |
| Automations | An automation runs, pauses, or fails. |
Quiet hours
Set a daily window when Slashy holds back notifications. Settings → Notifications → Quiet hours. Pick a start time, end time, and which categories should still break through (most people leave Calendar on so meeting reminders still fire). Quiet hours respect your local timezone, including DST changes.
Per-label rules
Inside Settings → Notifications → Per label, choose which importance labels generate a New email notification. Most users leave Important on, Newsletter and Promotions off, and Billing on. Custom labels you’ve created show up here too.Browser permission (Chrome)
Slashy can’t show desktop notifications in Chrome until you grant permission at the OS level.
If you previously blocked notifications and the dropdown doesn’t show the option, follow Google’s instructions for changing site permissions in Chrome.
macOS notification permission
The Slashy desktop app asks for notification permission the first time it launches. If you skipped that prompt, open System Settings → Notifications → Slashy and turn Allow Notifications on. From the same screen you can choose alert style (Banner or Alert) and whether notifications appear on the lock screen.Mobile push
The iOS app has its own toggles in Settings → Notifications → Mobile push. You can turn off a category on mobile while keeping it on for desktop, which is the usual setup for people who want focused work on a laptop and only urgent pings on a phone.
