Tranzio tells you when something needs your attention: a finished download, a reply, a review, or an update. You decide how loudly.
Tranzio is quiet by design; when it does speak up, it's because something you care about happened: a download finished, a team replied to you, someone reviewed your work, or a translation you installed has an update. Notifications arrive in two places: the bell at the top right for a quick look, and the full Notifications page in the sidebar for the complete history. The bell's list scrolls, and older notifications load as you reach the bottom of it, so you rarely have to leave what you were doing to catch up.
When one arrives
With Tranzio in front of you, a new notification slides in at the top right and stays for ten seconds. The green line along the bottom is that time running out, and hovering the card stops it, so nothing disappears while you're reading it. Three parts of it are yours to click: the card opens the notification in full, its button (when it has one) does the thing it names, and the × just dismisses it, leaving it unread in the bell.

Some notifications ask you to decide rather than just to look, and those answer where they are. A friend request carries Approve next to View profile: approving confirms with a message and tells the other person, whose notification then offers Message and View profile in turn. Declining stays on the profile, because saying no deserves a look at who is asking.
Working through them
The red number on the bell is simply how many you haven't looked at. Open a notification and it clears itself, or clear the whole lot with Mark all read when you've been away and the list is longer than your interest in it.

Mark all read| Where | What it does |
|---|---|
| The red count | How many unread notifications are waiting. It clears as you read them, or all at once with Mark all read. |
| Click a title | Marks it read and opens it in full on the Notifications page, with the item you came for highlighted. |
| Click its button | Goes straight to whatever it's about: the game page, the message thread, or the update it's offering. |
| The Notifications page | The full list with filters by category, for when you've been away a week and want to catch up in order. |
Choosing what you get
You're in charge of the volume. In Settings → Notifications, you decide which categories reach you at all, which of them may show desktop notifications (the operating-system popups that appear even when Tranzio is in the background), and when everything should stay silent.
When a build finishes, or stops because something needs fixing.
Replies from teams and players you're talking to.
Someone writes your name in a forum topic or a comment.
Show the text itself in the popup, not just who sent it.
The same page carries one setting that is not about volume at all: Only friends can message me. It is off by default, and turning it on leaves your profile exactly as visible as before, but the Message button on it stops working for anyone who is not your friend. Threads you already have keep going. See Messages.
The sound it makes
A message or a notification arriving plays a short sound. Which one is up to you: Settings → Notifications → Notification soundlists them all, and tapping any row plays it, so you choose by ear rather than by name. Picking No sound keeps everything else and just stays quiet.
The choice follows your account, so signing in on another computer brings it with you. It is separate from the desktop-notification switches above: those decide whether the operating system interrupts you, this decides what you hear inside the app. Your own messages never make a sound, and a burst of notifications plays one sound rather than stacking them.
Quiet hours
A quiet window silences the desktop popups between the two times you pick, 22:00 to 07:00 by default. Nothing is thrown away while it's on: the notifications collect in the bell exactly as they would otherwise, and the popups resume when the window ends.
Quiet hours, 22:00 to 07:00
Quiet hours live there too: set a nightly window and Tranzio holds its desktop popups until morning. The notifications still collect in the bell, so you miss nothing; you just aren't pinged at 2 AM because someone in another timezone rated your adaptation.
