Notification Sounds

EchoHub can play a notification sound when someone @mentions you. This is disabled by default and must be enabled in your profile settings.

Enabling Notifications

Open your profile (/profile) and check the "Notification sound on @mention" checkbox, then save. You can also adjust the Volume (0-100, default 30). All settings are persisted in ~/.echohub/config.json.

Customizing the Sound

The client ships with a default Notification.mp3 in the Assets folder. To use your own notification sound, replace the file at:

<app-directory>/Assets/Notification.mp3

The file must be a valid .mp3 or .wav audio file. The replacement takes effect on the next app launch.

Alternatively, set a custom path in ~/.echohub/config.json:

{
  "notifications": {
    "enabled": true,
    "volume": 30,
    "soundFile": "/path/to/your/sound.mp3"
  }
}

When soundFile is set, EchoHub uses that file instead of the bundled default.

Disabling Notifications

Uncheck the option in your profile, or edit the config directly:

{
  "notifications": {
    "enabled": false
  }
}
