Work from home has basically fixed this for me. Disable your works preferred messenger notifications and set a few times during the day that you will check them. Same goes for email.
- mattowen_uk 5y agoI tried this, but my work uses MS Teams, which doesn't honour do-not-disturb. When you set DnD on, the app STILL flashes it's taskbar icon, creating a distraction. The only way around it is to mute all the noisy teams channels, and to remember to unmute them later. Also, being @-ed in a chat totally overrides DnD as well, and the sales guys have worked this out, and @ people constantly all day long. I even tried not having Teams running when I was 'in the zone' only to end up being called on the phone to check 'whether I was working today'... :(
- kyriakos 5y agoI looked this up, check https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/msteams/forum/all/how-to-stop-teams-from-blinking-in-taskbars-when/decc661a-7c4a-4f7e-a729-afdee2f14824 https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/msteams/forum/all/how-to... You can at least set it to flash only once (better than constant blinking). People calling you on the phone is another story and part of the company culture I believe. In my case I don't get phone calls from work, only teams calls and those are always scheduled in advance.
