We need notifications for email and messages on the Desktop

more options

Hello,

I have just discovered how to see the notifications, but I do not think that they are convenient.

Is it possible to get notifications on the Destkop? It would be nice to have a counter of unread emails for example and a counter of messages.

Thanks to all for Firefox OS! I like this OS.

Best wishes

Jo.

Hi joseph.vidal.rosset, I am happy to hear you like Firefox OS! I understand that you would like to move the notifications to the Desktop. Currently there is not an option to customize notifications.

I am not sure if there is a Marketplace app that does this, but you can change all notifications to not show up on the home screen from the Settings menu by tapping on Notification. In order to change notifications for new emails, in the email account tap on the three bar menu on the left, click on the gear then click on the account name. From there there will be an option to turn off new email notifications.

If you have any other questions on how to use Firefox OS, we are happy to help.
