# Typing notifications
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
The Zulip web app displays typing notifications in [conversation
 | 
						|
views](/help/reading-conversations) and the [direct message
 | 
						|
feed](/help/direct-messages#view-direct-message-feed). Typing notifications are
 | 
						|
not shown in channels with more than 100 subscribers. The mobile app displays
 | 
						|
typing notifications in direct message conversations.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Typing notifications are only sent while one is actively editing text in the
 | 
						|
compose box or the [message editing](/help/edit-a-message) box. They disappear
 | 
						|
if typing is paused for several seconds, if all the content of the message is
 | 
						|
erased, or if the message is [saved as a
 | 
						|
draft](/help/view-and-edit-your-message-drafts#save-a-draft). Just having the
 | 
						|
compose box or message editing box open will not send a typing notification.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
## Disable sending typing notifications
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
If you'd prefer that others not know whether you're typing, you can
 | 
						|
configure Zulip to not send typing notifications.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
{start_tabs}
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
{tab|desktop-web}
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
{settings_tab|account-and-privacy}
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
1. Under **Privacy**, toggle **Let recipients see when I'm typing direct
 | 
						|
   messages** and **Let recipients see when I'm typing messages in channels**.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
{end_tabs}
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
## Disable seeing typing notifications
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
If you'd prefer not to see notifications when others type, you can disable them.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
{start_tabs}
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
{tab|desktop-web}
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
{settings_tab|preferences}
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
1. Under **Information**, toggle **Show when other users are typing**.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
{end_tabs}
 | 
						|
 |
