Getting the bell back to zero
Tapping a notice in the list marks it read, and the button at the bottom marks everything unread as read at once. Either way the new count is pushed straight to the screens you have open, so no tab is left showing a stale number.
How it is done today
With the same account open on a laptop and a phone, something read in one place still looks unread in the other. People end up opening the same notice twice, and after that nobody believes the number on the bell.
How it works
- 1
One at a time
Tapping a notice in the list marks it read there and then, with no separate control to go and find first.
- 2
Or all at once
The button at the bottom of the panel marks everything you have unread as read together, instead of tapping through them one by one.
- 3
The count travels by itself
After marking, the new count is pushed straight to your open screens, so no page has to go and ask for it again.
- 4
Your own notices only
Marking one checks that it belongs to you. Somebody else's id comes back as not found rather than being marked.
What runs on its own, what stays in your hands
What happens automatically
Recalculating the count and pushing it to every screen you have open happens without anyone refreshing.
What you control
Which notices get cleared, and when the whole list is cleared, stays entirely your decision.

Frequently asked questions
Can a notice be made unread from here?
No, this route only sets read. Putting something back to unread is done from the inbox, where the item's menu offers that as an option.
Can somebody else's notification be marked?
No. The request looks only among your own notices, and another person's id reports not found, which also means a real id cannot be told from an invented one.
Does marking all read delete the notices?
No, they are only marked read. They stay in the list and can be read again later; the difference is that the unread count goes to zero.
