I want a way to stop my SMS from appearing on my lockscreen, I tried to find a way to turn it off. I am a privacy freak and i don't want my messages appearing while my phone is locked...can anybody help me?
You can have it hidden it'll just say new message but that includes for notification bar as well its in the settings of the messaging app
Yeah I don't understand the sms notification. I wish you could just disable the lock screen notification. It doesn't function the way I wish it did. It also makes all other sms widgets on the lock screen pointless.
How do you turn off Flipboard notifications? I'm tired of this app spamming me every day, I've tried going into the app going to profile, hitting the settings icon and then going to Push Notifications and unchecking all of the boxes but its still sending me the notifications!
Thanks.
Block it with debloater
Goto tablet settings, apps, find flipboard and turn off notifications, simple ☺

Same issue here. Turning off push notifications does not do the trick. Pissing me off, tell you what.

That's the problem, I use it daily, just hate the notifications. I have everything unchecked in settings and still they notify me. Ugh.
If the app is running in background you still get notifications, even with it disabled in settings, only way to stop it is to open recent apps and clear flipboard once youve stopped using it, this seems to happen with alot of apps, i get the same thing with news republic app

Android allowing notifications
The Blocking Mode on Galaxy devices lets you disable the entire notifications on your device, But how to disable notifications on Android for selected apps? follow the instruction to specify which application is allowed to show notifications on the status bar:
1. Open Settings and go to Application Manager (or Apps on some devices)
2. Now you should see the list of installed applications on your device
3. Tap the application you would like to disable notifications
4. Make sure "Show Notifications" is not checked

I also cleared data and signed out - some who still use FB may not want to go this far.
I'm so proud of myself. Some months ago, I started searching the Internet to find out how to end those annoying Flipboard notifications. Today, I was out searching, again. Somehow, I accidentally discovered the answer. And you'll flip when you read my solution! (Definitely, no pun intended. )
To disable Flipboard:
1. Go to your notifications.
2. Find a recent Flipboard notification item and touch and hold the notification item.
This action should take you directly to the app's notifications settings. At the very top is the option to disable Flipboard's notifications.
This worked in my Sansung Galaxy S7, but I see no reason it shouldn't work for other devices/users who are disgusted with the annoyance.
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
On the S9 "app icon badges" screen in "settings", it says "notifications and badges are linked."
Is it possible to *un*link them either through a setting (that I'm not seeing) or a third party app? Search results on the net for this issue are almost exclusively about how to turn the badges off.
In an ideal world, I use the notifications that appear at the top of the screen to let me know something has come in and I can check whether I need to deal with it immediately. If it's not a right-now issue, I swipe it away to keep the clutter off the top bar. At the end of the day, I cruise to a folder of communications apps and look for badges to remind me to deal with what I could ignore earlier. Badges disappearing after a swipe is a big monkey wrench in how I interact with my phone.
Any thoughts on a fix or a work-around?
Is there a way of prioritising notifications so that a specific app's notifications will always appear at the top of the list?
I have a video doorbell app which I'd always like to access quickly if the doorbell is pressed.
