Hi community, I was wondering how to turn the WhatsApp notifications off on my Macbook Air. I went to the Apple menu -> System Settings and turned off "Play sound for notification" but it still makes the sound when I receive a message. I then tried disabling "Allow notifications" and I still hear the beep when receiving a message. I don't want to have to quit the app just so I don't hear the notifications, nor do I want to put the whole laptop on mute... Thank you in advance for any suggestions to fix this :)!

I would verify your software is up to date(?)

The current stable release of Ventura including bug fixes, security updates is macOS Ventura 13.4

Keep your Mac up to date - Apple Support

For your Third party app—if in doubt search the developers website or contact their: Support/Help/FAQ/Known issues/compatibility/updates/uninstaller

Contact a third-party vendor - Apple Support

I had the same problem. you have to turn off notifications on the app itself.

Go to System Settings > Notifications > Whatsapp and disable this.

Worked for me.

you can mute sounds from the app.
