# Typing notifications
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Zulip displays typing notifications when viewing a direct message or
 | 
						|
group direct message conversation to which one of the other
 | 
						|
participants is currently composing a message.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Typing notifications are only sent while one is actively editing text
 | 
						|
in the compose box, and they disappear if typing is paused for about
 | 
						|
15 seconds.  Just having the compose box open will not send a typing
 | 
						|
notification.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
### Disable 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}
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
{settings_tab|account-and-privacy}
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
1. Under **Privacy**, toggle **Let recipients see when I'm typing
 | 
						|
   direct messages**.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
{end_tabs}
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
