    Pop-up notifications on Xbox One

    Pop-up notifications on your Xbox One console notify you about events such as a new message or an incoming Skype call.

    When you see a pop-up notification and want to view it, press and hold the Xbox button  on your controller. If you miss the pop-up notification, press the Xbox button  to open the guide, and then select System > Notifications to view it there.

    To change your notification settings, press the Xbox button  to open the guide, and then select System > Settings > Preferences > Notifications. You can choose what to do with individual Xbox and app notifications (or turn all notifications off), adjust the duration of pop-up notifications, and more.
