Phone Basics 20
Notifications Panel
Notification icons report the arrival of new messages, calendar events, alarms, as well as
ongoing events, such as when you are on a call.
When you receive a notification, text appears briefly and the notification icon will be displayed in
the Status Bar. For descriptions of the various notification icons, see Status Bar.
You can open the Notifications Panel to view a list of all recent notifications. Depending on your
settings, you may hear a notification sound and the phone may vibrate.
Note: Adjusting sound volume and other general notifications settings is described in Sound
Settings.
Applications whose activities produce notifications, such as Gmail™ and Google Talk™, have
their own settings, which you can use to configure whether, and how, they send notifications.
See the sections on those applications for details.
