How to Customize Slack Notifications on Mac OS

Slack notifications can be customized to suit your preferences and ensure that you stay informed about important updates and messages. In this article, we will explore the various options available in Mac OS to customize your Slack notifications.

Upon opening the Notifications & Focus window, you will notice a few options at the bottom that apply to all notifications. Here are a couple of key settings:

* Badge app icon: These are the little red dots that appear on the app icon when you receive a notification.

* Show in Notification Center: You can show or hide the Notification Center by clicking on the clock in your menu bar.

To install Slack notifications, simply use pip with the following command: `pip install slack-notifications`.

For simple usage, import os and slacknotifications as follows:

```

import os

import slacknotifications as slack

```

Here are some additional options to consider when customizing your Slack notifications:

* Show notifications on lock screen: You may want to uncheck this option if your Mac is in a public area.

* Allow notifications: If you allow notifications for the app, you can choose between Banners, Alerts, or None. By default, the Slack icon will flash once when receiving a notification if your computer has been idle for ten seconds.

To enable notifications, go to Apple menu > System Preferences > Notifications & Focus. In the center-right pane, you will see all of the available notifications options for the highlighted app in the left pane. You can also set the Allow Notifications toggle to OFF if you don't want to receive any notifications for that app.

In addition, you can choose to have the icon flash when you're active by clicking on your profile picture in the top right corner of your desktop. From here, select Preferences > Notification Preferences and adjust the settings as desired.

By following these steps, you can customize your Slack notifications to suit your preferences and stay informed about important updates and messages on your Mac OS device.
