Currently, whenever there’s an inbox notification, we get notified using the text in the tab.
This is okay until you start pinning tabs, and the text disappears, and you stop being notified in the browser. You still receive system notifications - but I don’t think many people monitor those.
The way Gmail does this is excellent, as it gives you both indications in the tab text and the favicon for when there is unread mail.

Hi @Wiktor_Jurek, thanks for taking the time to provide this feedback! As someone who pins my Asana tabs, this would be an amazing feature
Hopefully this is something our Product team can implement in the future. I’ll keep you posted and let you know if we have any updates
Hi @Rebecca_McGrath! Seems like a great feature to have! A very nice QoL thing that is simple, but really effective for notification management.
Hi, our team is new to Asana, and I am also someone with many pinned tabs in my browser, and would love to see this implemented. I’ve got email notifications turned off because the whole point of using Asana is to reduce email inbox clutter and keep all project information in one central location. So even though I do check my Asana pinned tab regularly, it would really help to know when there’s a new inbox message.
Pinned tabs are a lifesaver because whenever you relaunch your browser, they are there. I literally have about 15 pinned tabs, as I do mostly web development.
Slack has this feature, too.
Is there any update on whether Asana is working on implementing this feature, since the post is rather old?
