Chat can get noisy — especially when you're part of multiple groups and teams. Until now, your options were pretty limited: get notified about everything or mute a conversation entirely. Now we’re giving you more options for chat notifications so you can have real control over what you hear about and when.

From your chat notification settings, you can now see all of your groups and teams in one place, along with the current notification setting for each. This includes Services teams, which didn't have notification controls before.
Choose what you want to hear about
For each group or team, you can pick the level of notifications that makes sense for you:
New messages and reactions — hear about everything (this is the default).
New messages — get notified for messages, but not when someone reacts with a 👍 or 💜. If you're in a large conversation, this one's for you.
Only when new conversations are created — great for prayer walls, marketplaces, or any group where you want to know when something new starts without being pinged for every reply.
No message notifications — you won't get push notifications or app badges, but the conversations are still there whenever you're ready to check in.
Whatever you choose becomes the default for all conversations in that group or team. But if there's a specific conversation you want to treat differently, you can override it from the conversation details.

For example, you could set your small group to "only when new conversations are created," but then turn on full notifications for a specific conversation you're actively involved in. It's flexible enough to match how you actually use chat.
The goal is simple: stay connected to what matters, skip the noise, and never feel like you need to turn off all your app notifications just to get some peace.
