Option to disable mobile sound/vibration notifications when using Desktop #277
Comments

That is possible and yes this is definitely needed. Its pretty annoying... |
|
Yeah this is definitely a much needed thing. If it could be made in way like Facebook Messenger where it somehow knows when you were last active in the webbrowser rather than the app on the phone then avoids notifying on the phone. Right now Ive made a tasker script on my android that i can quickly enable to toggle telegram notifications, but still... |
|
Right now there is a dirty workaround by muting the conversation on the phone for 1 hour, but we still need a good solution like Kocayine proposed. Any feedback if the devs see this as a high priority change? I think many users do... |
|
+1 but only if it's optional (Sometimes I don't turn off my office PC and just lock screen, so telegram stays open) |
|
@Katzen-Gott My device (Nexus 5, Android 5.0.1) usually buzzes fully still, and is probably only 7/10 for dismissing notifications when the desktop application has focus or is focused (on WiFi or a solid mobile data connection, even), but even with short buzzes it can get annoying if you get a flurry of messages. |

wouldn't this involve making a modification to the mobile app as well? |
|
@kireledan You're totally right. Any chance this kind of presence detection could be added in? |
|
@kireledan @joshery420 It looks more like a server thing. Or even overall. At least on iOS, there is the push thing. And I'm not sure, that app can do anything with phone behaviour on pushes. And there is similar thing for androids (google push?), which shoud be considered as well... |
|
@Katzen-Gott Oh there's definitely a server component to getting this working well. I wasn't trying to imply it was all inside the apps. 😄 I'm sure the mobile apps are using push notifications, but the apps still have to be setup to handle those notifications and they can adjust how they handle them based on other conditions (there's already a wide variety of notification settings on mobile, even) I guess the ideal for me would be that if you're considered "present" on the desktop, mobile notifications would still show (until you viewed the message somewhere, of course) but wouldn't vibrate or make sound. This allows for easy switching between devices/platforms because the notifications are still visible, but not constantly buzzing the phone in my pocket when I chat on desktop or spam ding sounds through my desktop speakers just because I reply on my phone and don't have the desktop app focused. For the record, my experience is based on the Windows desktop client and the Android mobile app. |
|
@joshery420 I totally agree with you. |
|
Any update on this? Its driving my insane. I'm now trying to manually disable the mobile session from my desktop app settings. Maybe that will mute the notifications. Still needs me to re-login on my phone when I go away from the pc. Very annoying. |
|
@Paratron I usually turn off notifications within the mobile app when I'm at my computer. Works, but can be a bit frustrating if you're doing it often. |
|
Yeah, I did the same now, too. The session cancelling was a bit overkill :) |
|
This should soon be done right? :-) Smart Notifications |
|
👍 great news. |
|
Not works for me... Android app and desktop are updated. |
|
When you are using the Desktop app and you mark the messages as "read" with the Desktop app, your phone stays quiet. |
|
So it seems that this was sadly not part of the "Smart notifications" update :-/ |
|
No idea what you are talking about. Current version has "smart notifications" (set max. x notifications in y minutes) and the phone stays quiet when you are in a conversation on the desktop app. |
|
That's correct but only if the desktop app has focus. |
|
Oh I didn't even notice that I don't get notifications on the phone when the app is in focus on desktop, because I always do other stuff on the PC, that way the app is never in focus when I'm chatting with someone. |
|
That definitely needs a fix. I think you can assume to be in a conversion on the desktop if the mobile is locked and the mouse + keyboard is used on desktop, even if the app is NOT focused. |
|
The developers should probably take a look at how Slack works:
If would be even nicer if it also had some options for customization (for example: how long to wait before notifying in mobile app). And it could also account for whether or not there is any activity on the desktop in general – because if the desktop is completely idle, then the notification could go straight to mobile. From: Christian Engel [mailto:[email protected]] That definitely needs a fix. I think you can assume to be in a conversion on the desktop if the mobile is locked and the mouse + keyboard is used on desktop, even if the app is NOT focused. — |

That's exactly what is on the last comment that I think should be implemented. And this "X minutes" can be configured by the user. He spoke all. |
|
+1 from me too. Also have to keep asking a colleague to stop his phone vibrating while he's using telegram desktop as it just constantly buzzing away in our office while he has his headphones on |
|
I think this is possible: when a message comes in, first send notifications to currently active device or the last active device. If in 30secs the message is still unread, send notifications to every device. |

I dont think anyone from telegram is even reading this... i've had a load On Wed, 15 Jul 2015 22:21 Tobias Umbach [email protected] wrote:

if you do that be sure i will report you to github. |
You maybe report one on my fake accounts, but I'll create another thousand of them 😂 |
|
@megapro17 Be sure to start with pull requests that fix the issue. |
I'm not with megapro17 but if I understood the problem correctly, shouldn't this be fixed in the server side which is not gonna be open sourced by telegram yet? |
|
This is beyond ANNOYING, can we have an official answer saying if this is ever going to be implemented? |
|
Came here to post the same damn thing, only to find it's never been implemented. I only started using Telegram on my phone recently, but the notifications are the incredibly fucking annoying; why the hell do they need to take up half the screen, and aren't actual proper Android notifications (so I can't control them, and they don't appear in the notification drawer)? I don't mind the notifications on my desktop computer because they're tiny and out of the way, but on the phone they are just far too disruptive. On the plus side I've found one easy way to disable Telegram notifications on my phone only; uninstall Telegram from my phone. |
I don't think that this can be fixed in client, this is a server side change |
Then how telegram-x doesn't have this problem? |
|
@SmartManoj Could you kindly provide a link to Telegram-X iOS client for me to try it out? |
there is no telegram x ios anymore, telegram x ios becomed telegram ios long time ago. |
|
@Aokromes But I encountered op's issue when I'm using Telegram-iOS and telegram-desktop. So shall I say the problem is still not solved? |
|
Any news? |
|
Anyone tried to report this on https://bugs.telegram.org/? |
When did that start existing? Why is this issue tracker still active if that is the place to report stuff? |
|
it was 2021 and the problem is still not fixed... 🤬 |
On 2020.12.23.: https://telegram.org/blog/voice-chats |
because that bugtracker cannot be used by most persons to report bugs. |
|
I've reported it. Here's the link: https://bugs.telegram.org/c/1672 Please add any comments if you feel it helps. |
|

So don't use it!!! I don't use WhatsApp and no problem!! |
|

|
Okay, this is ridiculous to be taking literal years. |

Hi, when using Telegram Desktop is it possible to silence out the notifications on the phone?
There are no notifications on the phone, actually they are dismissed successfully, but for every received message I hear the sound/vibration (sometimes it is cut out in the half, as it has been "cancelled").
The text was updated successfully, but these errors were encountered:
