How do I get notified when someone tags me in Team chat?

Turn on pop-up notifications once. Alori then rings and shows a pop-up when someone tags you or writes to you, and you can pause it.

Updated October 28, 2026

When someone tags you (@your name), writes to you in a direct message, or calls the whole channel with @channel, Alori plays a short sound and shows a pop-up with who wrote and their first words. Click the pop-up to open the message. Turn pop-ups on once per browser.

Also called: alert, ping, mention, sound, do not disturb, snooze, mute, notification, avertissement, mention, son, ne pas déranger, sourdine

The pop-up shows when Alori isn't the window you're looking at: another tab or another app. While you're reading that channel, nothing rings.

Step 1: Turn on pop-up notifications

The first time you click anywhere in Alori, your browser asks whether Alori may show notifications. Click Allow. If you missed it, click Get notified when someone tags you at the bottom of the Team chat list, just above your name.

Click: Team chat › Get notified when someone tags you › Allow

The Get notified when someone tags you button above your name at the bottom of Team chat

Step 2: Check your notification settings

Click your name at the bottom of the Team chat list. Under Notifications, you can turn pop-ups on with Turn on pop-up notifications and switch the sound with Sound when someone tags you or writes to you. The sound is saved on your account, so it follows you on every computer.

Click: Team chat › your name › Notifications

The Notifications section with Turn on pop-up notifications, the Sound switch and the pause buttons

Step 3: Pause notifications when you don't want to be disturbed

Under Pause notifications, click For 1 hour or Until tomorrow. No sound and no pop-up until then. Your teammates still see your messages arrive, and the red count still shows. Click Turn notifications back on to end the pause early.

Click: Team chat › your name › For 1 hour

Pop-up notifications are on, with the Sound switch and the For 1 hour and Until tomorrow buttons

You can also ask Alori: "Pause my chat notifications until 2 pm" or "Turn off my chat sound".

If it doesn't work

  • "Your browser blocks notifications. Click the icon left of the address bar and allow them." You clicked Block once. Click the icon left of the web address, set Notifications to Allow, then reload the page.

  • No sound. Check that Sound when someone tags you or writes to you is on, and that your computer isn't muted. The browser only plays sounds after you have clicked once on the page.

  • No pop-up on a Mac. Open System Settings › Notifications, pick your browser (Chrome, Safari…) and allow its notifications.

  • A muted channel stays quiet. Unmute it from the channel's menu to hear it again.
