Granola will remind you to take notes by prompting you with a notification in the top right corner of your screen. This article walks through the different types of notification that Granola will show you in prep for your meetings

​
Calendar event notifications

Granola will send a notification one minute before a meeting in your calendar. image.png Clicking the notification will:
  • Open the URL for the video call from the calendar event
  • Open your Granola note for that meeting, and start transcribing
If you’re not seeing a notification, check that your calendar is synced correctly and events are showing in your ‘Coming up’ section. Calendar notifications only appear for events with 2 or more attendees.

​
Ad-hoc call notifications

Granola can detect calls held in most platforms, even if it’s not in your calendar. By detecting that your microphone is in use, Granola will prompt you to take notes. image.png This might be useful for calls you jump onto spontaneously from your Desktop: for instance, a slack huddle, a Facetime, or a WhatsApp call. If you start a meeting within 15 minutes after a scheduled meeting on your calendar, Granola will detect the call and then assume it’s related to that calendar event, so the name of the event will be shown in the notification.

​
Turning off notifications

You can turn off notifications (completely, or per app), by going to your Settings and ‘Notifications’ image.png
