Turn off one app’s notifications
Quiet the app that pesters you and leave everything else exactly as it is.
Notifications are set app by app. You can silence a game completely and still hear a call from your daughter.
The switches sit in Settings, under Notifications, with one row for every app you own.
Key points
- Every app has a notification switch of its own
- Silencing one app leaves calls, texts and mail alone
What to remember
- The app stays installed. Only the interrupting stops.
- Notifications are set app by app, never all or nothing.
Try this
Open Settings, then Notifications, and read down the list of apps. Nothing has to be changed yet.
