Discord Notification Settings

Server Specific Notifications

Firstly, you're going to want to click on the 3 dots next to the "Seller Circle" in the top left of Discord, then click "Notifications".

Mobile Settings - iOS Notifications

Firstly, go to: Settings > Notifications > Discord. For the most part, configuring your notifications here is pretty simple and straightforward, however, we'll touch on a couple of settings which will make things much more smooth for you. Allow Notifications: Enable this to be notified when outside of Discord - Think of this as the main on/off switch for Discord

Lock Screen: This will enable your notification to be displayed on your screen when your iPhone is locked and not used.

Banners: This will enable notifications to pop up when you are using the your iPhone but outside of Discord.

Badges: Enabling this will allow the Discord app icon to update with a red notification with a number for the amount of notifications waiting to be read - This is very useful.

Mobile Settings - Android Notifications

In your phones notifications settings, you will want to enable all notifications - Think of this as the main on/off switch for Discord.

From here, you can set the behaviour that the notifications will have on your phone.

Notifications wake up your device: This means that if your phone is locked and not being used the notification will 'wake up' your phone, turning your screen on and displaying the notification.

Disable notifications light: Turning this option on will prevent your notification light from lighting up notifying you.

Disable notification vibration: Enabling this will stop your phone from vibrating when being notified by Discord.

Disable sounds: Enabling this option will stop your phone from making a sound when notified.

Configuring your notification settings for either Mac or PC will follow a very similar pattern. The more important side to configure when it comes to notifications is your mobile device(s), however, tweaking your notifications for Discord on desktop is also useful! The general server-specific settings you configured here for Discord will usualyl be enough when it comes to desktop notifications.
