Dismiss a notification

Quick answer

  • In the bell panel, hover the notification and click its dismiss (✕).
  • Or on the Notifications page, click the ✕ on the item's row.
  • The item drops off your list — it only affects your view, no one else's.

Remove a single notification you've dealt with so it stops cluttering your list. Dismissing affects only your own view — it doesn't notify or change anything for anyone else.

  1. From the bell panel

    Click the bell in the top header bar to open the Notifications panel. Hover (or keyboard-focus) the notification you're done with and click its dismiss (✕) control. The item is removed from the list straight away.

  2. Or from the Notifications page

    On the Notifications page, each row has its own ✕ button — click it to dismiss that item. This works on either the Messages or Alerts tab.
