Step by step

  1. Android screenshot: Open Notifications

    Open Notifications

    Open Settings and tap Notifications.

  2. Android screenshot: Tap App notifications

    Tap App notifications

    App notifications is at the top: Change notification settings for each app.

  3. Android screenshot: Find the app

    Find the app

    Every app has a switch. Turn it off to stop all its notifications, or tap the app's name for more choices. We tapped Chrome.

  4. Android screenshot: Turn off Allow notifications

    Turn off Allow notifications

    The app's page starts with Allow notifications. Below are Sound and vibration, where notifications show (Lock screen, App icon badge, Notification pop-up), Notification pop-up style and Show or hide content when locked.

If you do not see this option

  • No notification categories? Google says that if an app has categories, you can tap one for more options. For Chrome, our page had none; at the bottom was Configure in Chrome, which we did not open. Source: Control notifications on Android
  • App switch already off? In our list DB Navigator was off and marked Deep sleeping. Turn the switch on to allow it again.

If this does not work

  • Still getting notifications from a website? Those come from Chrome. Configure in Chrome, at the bottom of Chrome's page, leads to Chrome's own settings; we did not open it.
  • Want them quieter, not off? Leave Allow notifications on and switch off Sound and vibration, or untick Notification pop-up.
  • Missed one you turned off? Notification history keeps a list: see notification history.

About this guide

You can silence one noisy app and keep the rest. One UI 9 lists every app with its own switch.

The screenshots are from our Samsung Galaxy A57 with One UI 9 and Android 17 (build A576BXXU6BZIE), in Dark mode. We only looked and changed nothing. We used Chrome.

Good to know

Notifications not arriving at all? 5 settings to check on a Galaxy.

On a Pixel: turn off notifications for one app on a Google Pixel.

In short: Settings, Notifications, App notifications, the app's switch off; or tap the name, Allow notifications off.
