Teams Notification Popup Duration

Is there a way to reduce the amount of time the popup notification lingers?  Use case, get the notification in the bottom right of the Team window when Teams isn't the focus, it covers some of the conversation and doesn't go away for many seconds and there's no "x" to get rid of it.  I would like to reduce the amount of time it stays on screen.

    This depends on whether you are using the "Teams built-in" notifications or "Windows" notifications. (This of course assumes you're on Windows and not Mac, but I believe there is a similar setting in the Mac version.) This can be changed in the Teams settings.

    Either way, there should be an X to click on to dismiss the notification, but you may need to move your mouse over it first.

      Ah yes, it's not visible first, a different icon is in it's place but when I hover over it, the "x" does appear.
  • cdlord It's a setting in Windows Accessibility, "Dismiss notifications after this amount of time" however it should typically be set at 5 seconds which is the lowest value.

      It is default 5 seconds but the popup I am referring to does hang around longer than that.
