This guide will explain how to disable app notifications on Galaxy S8. If you don’t want to be bothered by dozens of notifications every day, you’ll be happy to know that they can all be turned off. Whether it’s the regular apps that keep you informed or the Samsung Galaxy App Store.
Users receive notifications from apps and weather, the Google Play store for updates, and the Galaxy App Store, which manages some of Samsung’s key services and features.
Sometimes these notifications are helpful, but most of the time they are unnecessary or promotional advertisements from the Galaxy App Store. Follow our steps below to clean your Galaxy S8 and get rid of all those app notifications.
How to Disable App Notifications on Galaxy S8
Samsung is allowing Galaxy S8 users to fully control app notifications. With options to turn them on/off on a per-app basis. So you can scroll down a list and disable app notifications in any app you want.
Additionally, you can tap the name of the app instead of toggling the toggle button for more options. Some of these include showing notifications silently to keep noise to a minimum while at work. You can choose to show or hide notifications and even a priority option for a particular app on the lock screen. This last one will make the notification sounds work regardless, even if you’re using Do Not Disturb mode.
How to Turn Off Galaxy Apps Notifications
Another step is to turn off app notifications for the Galaxy App Store. Features like the always-on display, camera modes, and other Galaxy features get updates from here. However, constant notifications and advertisements are not required. Make sure to turn off notifications here too.
We recommend keeping automatic update apps enabled, especially if you turn off update notifications. Otherwise, you will not be informed about the software updates and new features or improvements available for some key features of the Galaxy S8 and Galaxy S8+.
After following the above two sets of instructions, you will no longer receive constant notifications from every app and the Galaxy App Store will no longer bother you. This will give you a better experience on your Galaxy S8, keep your phone clean and give you more control over your device.
