All messaging apps should have the new Google Chat to avoid disturbances
The next update to Google Chat will add more customization capabilities to the status, including the ability to control when we don't want to be disturbed.
There is nothing worse than doing something and suddenly receiving a message that requires our attention; Many apps, like Google Chat, allow you to change your status to "Do Not Disturb," but you have to remember to change it every time.
Today, Google has announced a novelty that will allow us to activate the "Do Not Disturb" status automatically and without having to be constantly aware of it.
Do Not Disturb Mode in Google Chat
With the next update, Google Chat will allow us to program the Do Not Disturb mode, so that it activates itself at the times we have chosen. In this way, we don't have to do anything and the app will automatically notify our contacts that we don't want them to bother us, and it will silence the notifications in case they speak to us.
Currently, Google Chat already allows us to limit the amount of time that we do not want to be disturbed. If we click on the option to change the status and choose "Do not disturb", we can choose between 30 minutes and 24 hours, or impose a specific date and time. But that is only useful if we want to be undisturbed from now on, what if, for example, we don't want to be disturbed from tomorrow at 1:00 p.m.? That's where the new feature comes in.
The new Do Not Disturb option for Google Chat We can create several records of times when we do not want to be disturbed, as well as choose the days of the week. For example, it can be very useful to put it from Monday to Friday at lunchtime, so that notifications don't distract us; Or we may be interested in it for the weekends, and thus escape all the work messages. The chances are much greater than before.
The new function will reach both the Google Chat app for Android, as well as the web version, and for all users with a Google account; on this occasion, it will not be limited to users with professional or company accounts.
This is a feature that all messaging apps should implement. Much has been said about the need to disconnect from our mobile, to stop spending all day waiting for notifications, and a function like this will help a lot to stop receiving messages when we don't want to.
