How To Disable App Notifications On Android

By Leave a Comment

Are you receiving too many disturbing notifications from apps on your Android phone? Well, your response should always be a yes because every Android apk app by default sends notifications to enable the user to know what’s going on. But it becomes annoying when it’s repeated every moment especially when the notification is useless or reoccurring and it’s accompanied by a loud or kind of disturbing notification tone.

If you aren’t comfortable with the number of notifications a particular app is sending, then you are in the right place to know how you can block apps from sending notifications to your Android phone’s status bar. Note that hiding or disabling app notifications on your Android phone will automatically turn off every single notification from the apk app(s). So for example, if you are receiving annoying messages from Whatsapp groups and you don’t want it to continue, you will have to disable or hide Whatsapp app notifications which will also affect every other notification from  Whatsapp messenger. It also applies to every other Android app as well. There are some apps that you might naturally turn off their notifications without fear of missing anything while some will make you feel uncomfortable especially the social networking/messenger apps. Well, If you don’t mind turning off and as well missing some notifications from your Android apps, you can read on.
