Snooze

Snooze notifications and issues in Triage, or set issue reminders on other issues.

Linear app showing the snooze notification menu

Overview

Snoozing temporarily hides an issue from the Inbox or Triage. At the specified time, it will re-appear as a new notification and unread.

If a new activity occurs before the Snooze time, you will receive an inbox notification for the activity and the Snooze will be canceled.

To be reminded about an issue elsewhere in Linear, use Issue reminders. When setting a reminder, a notification will be sent to the Inbox at the selected time. While Snooze hides issues, setting reminders do not.
