Notifications can usually be disabled either per app or all at once through a “Do Not Disturb”–type mode on your device or browser.

On Android phones

• Open Settings → Notifications → App notifications , then toggle off any apps you don’t want to alert you.

• To silence everything temporarily, open Settings → Notifications → Do Not Disturb and turn it on, then set any exceptions you want (like calls from favorites).

On iPhone

• Go to Settings → Notifications , tap an app, then turn off Allow Notifications for apps you don’t want to see alerts from.

• To pause almost all alerts, open Control Center , tap Focus (or Do Not Disturb) and choose a Focus mode, then customize which people/apps are allowed through in Settings → Focus.

On Windows (PC)

• Open Settings → System → Notifications and turn off Notifications , or scroll down and toggle off specific apps under “Get notifications from these senders.”

• Use Do Not Disturb (in the notification/clock area) to pause notifications without changing each app’s setting.

On Mac

• Open System Settings → Notifications , then choose an app and turn off Allow notifications.

• To pause everything, set up a Focus (like Do Not Disturb) in System Settings → Focus , then enable it from Control Center.

In web browsers (site pop‑ups)

• In Chrome/Edge/Firefox/Safari, open the browser Settings → Privacy & security → Site settings → Notifications (wording varies), then block or remove sites you don’t want notifications from and disable “Sites can ask to send notifications.”

If you tell what device or app you’re using (e.g., “Android phone” or “Windows 11 PC”), a short step‑by‑step tailored guide can be provided.
