Web Applications Stack Exchange is a question and answer site for power users of web applications. It only takes a minute to sign up. Connect and share knowledge within a single location that is structured and easy to search. I am being watched by the boss. I want my status to show as "active" all the time even when I step away from my desk.
Are you able to install additional programs on your work computer? If so, you could use a chat client capable of using Google Chat, such as Pidgin. The new presence menu will appear to the right of the search field. This pill features both an indicator light and text status.
In the dropdown, you can select:. It comes as the legacy service and Google Chat today only lets users manually mute notifications. Definition: Inactive. If your account becomes inactive, you could lose the data that you stored in Gmail, such as messages, files, pictures, and videos. The default is three months of inactivity, but you can set it to wait for up to 18 months. Google says it will reach out one month before the time is up with emails and text messages before your account becomes officially inactive.
If you can forego that convenience and want to decide for yourself when your contacts can tell whether you are online, Gmail provides this level of control as well. In addition to showing the status mode, the indicator shows status icon- Green active , Red do not disturb White Away and Orange idle. When the "Do not disturb" mode is selected, users can select how long to mute their notifications.
In Gmail on the web, if a user is inactive for more than 15 minutes, the status will switch to 'away'. Notably, for those still using chat in classic Hangouts, disabling the "Show when you were last active" setting will now show them as away in Google Chat.
