Appearance
Use Managani Desktop
Menu Bar and System Tray
The Desktop menu includes:

- Open All Chat
- Open Notifications
- Each account with Dashboard, All Chat, All Feedback, and Notifications links
- Global shortcuts
- Notifications
- Show unread counts
- Start Managani at login

Selecting an account destination switches to that account before opening the requested view.
Notifications
Chat notifications are enabled by default. Open Settings > Notifications inside Desktop to enable or disable native alerts for Chat, Feedback, Social, and Content Strategy.
Choose a full preview, title only, or private notification text. Windows and Linux can request alerts that stay visible until dismissed. macOS controls persistence in System Settings.
Clicking a notification opens its account and destination. Managani suppresses a chat alert when that exact conversation is already open in the focused window.
Unread Counts
Desktop totals unread notifications across unique accounts on the selected server. Depending on the operating system, the count appears in the menu bar, Dock, taskbar, application badge, tray tooltip, or account menu.
Shortcuts
Default global shortcuts work while Desktop is running, even when its window is hidden:
| Action | Default shortcut |
|---|---|
| Show Managani | Control+Shift+Super+M |
| Open All Chat | Control+Shift+Super+C |
| Open Notifications | Control+Shift+Super+N |
Change them under Settings > Notifications > Desktop notifications. A shortcut must include Control, Alt, or Command/Super. Managani keeps the previous set when another application already owns a new shortcut.
Window shortcuts include Command+Shift+C or Ctrl+Shift+C for All Chat, Command+Shift+N or Ctrl+Shift+N for Notifications, and Command+W or Ctrl+W to hide the window.
Updates
Managani checks https://transfer.managani.com/apps for updates. It asks before downloading and asks again before restarting. If you choose Later after download, the update installs when Desktop quits.
