[Q] Notify Clean alternative? - Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers

I want to get rid of the "car mode" from my notification drop-down area when my Pixel is actively in Car Mode.
Notify Clean would do it, but Xposed isn't available for Nougat yet.
I can't seem to find anything in a Google search for Notify Clean alternatives.
Has anyone come across something or might know of a way to get rid of that Car Mode from the Notification Panel?

Not sure what you mean by "car mode", but if it's Android Auto or another app, try turning off notifications in Settings, Apps.

This Car Mode message in the attached screenshot.
I don't have any options for it to block.
I can block all Android System messages or none, there is no option to block just this one message (that I can find).
Notify Clean would have had the option.
I don't use Android Auto.

I realize this thread is old as heck, but https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.joaomgcd.autonotification&hl=en works AMAZINGLY on android pie, even got rid of the tedious snapchat "_____ is typing" notifications.

(Q) Get Rid of Android 8.0 Notification?

Is there an easy way to get rid of the Android System Upgrade 8.0 Notification? Tried swiping it off but it's persistent. I'm rooted & running PN. Automatic System Updates are turned off in Developer Options. (I'd rather not block all notifications from Google Play Services as a means to banish this notification)
Thanks.
Here's a screenshot
See screenshot of the persistent notification below:
Turn off messages from Google Play Services either through the app settings or by long pressing the notification.

Determine app that causes notifications

There are several notifications that are annoying to say the least.
We have a lot of control to handle app notifications that appear, but this is a system notification it seems, I can't identify what system feature is triggering the alert, then of course disabling it.
Running the Oreo Beta on a fresh install.
One of the notifications is: "blah blah app is using the battery, select for more details..." or something to that affect. It is a Android system notification, but I can't figure out what triggers that one and how to disable it.
Example, Life 360 app running in the background all the time, the alert will randomly show in the notification bar. Just swiping down and looking at it often makes it go away, I don't select it, or I just clear the alerts with the bars at the bottom.
Thanks
Go to Google Play and search for an app called "Hide 'running in the background' Notification" by iboalali.
Awesome. Thanks

Oreo Notifications - Pop-up vs. Notification Drop Down

Just started using Oreo, and have found something annoying and hoping I'm just missing a setting or something.
In Messages (and every other app so far) I have the option to Alert and Pop-up, or just alert without the pop up notification.
When I choose to just alert, I expect the notification Drop down to still show content. However, it's hidden unless I choose to notify with pop-up. I can't find a middle ground.
Checked security settings, and the only thing related is to hide content on the lock screen.
Anyone have any thoughts or advice on this?

How to Disable Screen Wake for Ring app

Hey all, my ring doorbell app wakes the screen anytime I get an alert. I want to keep the notifications on but don't want the screen to wake. It wakes even in my pocket which I want to of course avoid. It may just be a bug in the app but I should be able to limit that from happening. Or so I hope anyway.
I have tried the following.
1. Switched all notifications pertaining to the app and individual cameras to "sound only"
2. In the app I have disabled "alerts open full screen video"
3. I have disabled heads up notifications globally through ADB.
4. Disabled ambient display.
5. Disabled notifications on lock screen.
I'm at a loss on what to do next. Any ideas are appreciated at this point.
TIA

I've struggled with the same thing for months. It never used to do it, but after an update earlier this year it became the new normal for me.
I'm glad I'm not the only one. Hopefully somebody chimes in with some sort of work around.
I'm having the same problem with a Sony XZ1 phone (Android 8.0.0). I spoke with Ring at length and it's 'apparently' a problem with my phone, not their App.
I think that's a load of rubbish and something they need to address and fix. I installed the App on another Android phone running an earlier version of software, the App installs with different options and doesn't wake up the screen. So it's obviously dependent on the OS version but as other Apps don't have the same problem I can only conclude that it's an issue with the Ring App.
Has anyone tried uninstalling the app and then install an older version from APK mirror? Not even sure its on there but it's worth a go

That's a great idea. There are plenty of versions to try on APK mirror, one or two per month from 2018. Not a good sign for a reliable and stable app.
I'll give it a go later unless anyone gets there first and can suggest a 'good' version to try
Were you able to find an older version that doesn't have the screen wake behavior?
edit: Pixel 2 - going back to 2.0.66.8 still has the screen wake behavior regardless of notification setting.
edit 2: 2.0.57.2 does the same thing...
Looks like the latest ring version finally let's you fix this. Select your devices, go to notification settings, then select sound only. The default is sound plus pop up. I no longer have the issue after making the change.
Can anyone confirm if turning off the 'plus pop' in the ring app settings works? I have a new pixel 3 on Android pie and the app is still turning on the screen at every alert event with settings set to just sound or just silent.
I'm having the same issue with the ring app. It wakes the screen. Really sucks when phone is in my pocket. I have tried every option and or combo of options. I have a pixel 3a on Android 10. Android 10 does have a option to wake screen for notifications found under display advanced, lock screen. But it is turned off
Still a problem on Android 10, No combinations of settings has been able to stop this for me. Of course Ring denies this even though I have sent a logcat to them.

Question Check access settings

Every day I get these notifications, they say "Check access settings" and tell me that there's apps that have certain access that i may want to disable, and it tells me "Tap to review".
I'm getting pretty tired of having to swipe these away every day, is there a way to disable them? When i go into the options to disable them by long pressing the notification, it takes me to notification options that are disabled. There's got to be another place somewhere where i can disable this?

I long press notifications like that and set them to "Silent". Now I have a dozen silent notifications all the time, but they don't bother me. It's the price I gotta pay...
You can still swipe them away while they're silent, but I just don't bother most of the time.

I was also getting these daily (about 3 everyday) on my Pixel 6 Pro & 3 XL. And you can't disable them because they are a specific Android System notification. Such a weird bug. I even tried a factory reset.
I've moved to GrapheneOS and ProtonAOSP on my Pixel 3/6 Pro and these Android Forks are like night and day. Auto brightness, battery life etc work much better than Stock. I haven't used Android Forks in years but I've moved away from Google Services so it was time. I like being able to pick what app I want to install and what type of data is being sent to Google - rather than just having everything sent to GAFAM (Google / Facebook etc). And the built-in firewalls for network access and being able to disable sensors can't be underestimated. I can use Google Camera, GBoard etc without internet access. /rant over
