Open Settings, then scroll down and tap Notifications. You'll see a list of every app that has notification permissions.
Tap the name of the app whose notifications you want to adjust. You'll see all the options available for that app.
Toggle off Allow Notifications at the top to stop that app from showing any alerts, sounds, or badges. This is a complete silence — the app cannot notify you at all.
If you want to keep some notifications but not others, leave Allow Notifications on and adjust individual toggles: Lock Screen (show on lock screen), Notification Centre (show in the pull-down list), Banners (pop-ups at the top), and Sounds. Turn off Sounds to keep visual alerts but lose the chime.
On iPhone X and later, swipe down from the top right corner of the screen to open Control Centre. On older iPhones, swipe up from the bottom.
Tap the Focus button — it looks like a crescent moon or a partially filled circle. Tap it once to enable Do Not Disturb, which silences all notifications immediately.
Go to Settings → Focus → Do Not Disturb. Tap Add Schedule to set times (like 10pm–7am every night) when the phone automatically silences all notifications. Calls from your Favourites list can still come through if you choose.
Open Settings. Tap Notifications (on Samsung, this may be under Notifications & status bar). You'll see your recently active apps and a full app list.
Tap App notifications to see a list of all apps installed on your phone and their current notification status.
Tap any app in the list. Toggle off Allow notifications (or "All Notifications") to block that app from sending you any alerts. Some apps offer granular categories below — you can leave some on while turning others off.
Swipe down from the top of your screen once or twice to reveal the quick-settings tiles.
Tap the Do Not Disturb tile (it looks like a circle with a minus sign or a bed icon). All notifications are silenced immediately. Tap it again to turn it off.
Go to Settings → Sound & Vibration → Do Not Disturb (path varies by manufacturer). Tap Schedules to create automatic silent periods — for example, every weeknight from 11pm to 7am.
When a notification appears at the top of the screen, swipe left on it to reveal quick options.
Tap Options. Choose Turn Off → to silence that app for an hour, today, or forever — right from the notification itself, without going into Settings.
