How can I adjust the notification settings for group chats?

Default Notification Settings for Group Chats

The default notification settings apply to all group chats for which no individual notification settings are defined.

  • Android: In Threema, navigate to “Settings > Notifications” to adjust the default notification settings for group chats.
  • iOS: In Threema, navigate to “Settings > Sound & Notifications” to adjust the default notification settings for group chats.

Individual Notification Settings for Group Chats

Individual notification settings override the default notification settings and can be adjusted for each group chat separately.

  • Android: Open the desired group chat, tap “⋮” in the top right corner, and select “Notification settings.” Set an individual notification sound for the group chat or mute the group chat (permanently or for a specified duration). If you set “Do not disturb” to “On, unless I was mentioned,” you will only be notified of messages in which you are mentioned. Learn how to customize notification sounds.
  • iOS: Please refer to the FAQ article on individual notification settings in iOS.
