Hi, this is Aya from Japan and using a Japanese app.
We, I and my husband, use asana for handling the private matter.
Usually he misses my comments or the other notifications from the newly created tasks and such.
We both use Android, Motorola. The basic setting must be the same. But there does not seem the function to authorize the app to show unread tag in the app icon on my mobile.
He usually look into the Inbox and complains it’s too many notifications to look through all of them. He cannot know whether it is unread or not.
Is there any detailed function of the notification? Should we use English one if possible?
Hi @Ayallu, welcome to the community and thank you for the question!
Would you double-check the phone-wide dots settings in addition to the Asana-specific one?
On my Pixel 6a, the dot was displayed by changing two items in Settings:
too many notifications
He cannot know whether it is unread or not
This is another story.
I think the most important thing is to archive all notifications as you read them or finish acting on them and achieve “Inbox Zero”. That way, there are only unread notifications in your inbox.
To mitigate the overwhelming feeling, one approach is to reduce the notification in the first place by making sure you are not the collaborator of irrelevant tasks and another is disabling unnecessary notifications such as “task added to project”.
