💬 New in Nova Island 1.8.0: your messages, on the island.

WhatsApp, Telegram and your other apps now show up right on the island, each with its own icon and color. Click one to open the app.

How to turn it on:
1️⃣ Nova Settings → Alerts & Privacy → App notifications on the island
2️⃣ To see each message once, turn off Windows' own pop-up for that app:
Windows Settings → System → Notifications → choose the app → Show notification banners: Off
(Messages still go to Windows' notification center, and Nova shows them on the island.)

💡 Telegram Desktop: in Telegram, Settings → Notifications → turn on "Use Windows notifications".

🔒 Off until you turn it on. Nothing leaves your PC.
