Notifications
Syno delivers notifications across three channels — in-app, email, and Slack. Toggle channels per notification type to tune the noise.
Notification Types
- Mentions (@you)
- Task assigned (you become an assignee)
- Due soon (within 24 hours)
- Status change (one of your tasks moves)
- Reply to your comment
- Announcements
Channel Behavior
| Channel | Behavior | Recommended for |
|---|---|---|
| In-app | Always on, header bell icon | Everything |
| Same as in-app + daily/weekly digest | Mentions and assignments | |
| Slack | Channel notification + personal DM | Due dates and assignments |

Troubleshooting

Next Steps
