Hey User34​, welcome to our Community! 

Would you mind clarifying what you mean by "larger alerts"? 

How about your desktop app notifications? How are these set up? If you wish, you can send me a screenshot of your app's preferences, and the alerts you can see at the moment, in order for me to have a visual too.

Keep me posted, and we'll take it from there!
