How to Stop Notifications From Samsung Internet Browser

Is your Samsung Internet browser bombarding you with notifications from random websites? Don't worry, we've got you covered. While it may not be the browser itself sending those notifications, you can still take control and stop them. In this article, we'll walk you through the top three ways to stop notifications from the Samsung Internet browser.

1. Block Notifications For Specific Websites

If you only want to stop notifications from certain websites, you can add them to the block list. Here's how:

Block Websites From Notification Panel

The easiest way to block notifications from a specific website is to do it right from the notification panel. Follow these steps:

  1. Swipe down from the top half of the screen to access the notification panel.
  2. Locate a notification from the website you wish to block.
  3. Tap on the Block option.

Samsung Internet will add the website to the block list, and you won't receive any more notifications from it.

Alternatively, you can block websites by accessing the notification settings in the Samsung Internet app. Here's how:

  1. Open the Samsung Internet app on your phone.
  2. Tap the menu icon (three horizontal lines) in the bottom right corner and select Notifications.
  3. Tap the three-dot menu icon in the upper right corner and choose Allow or block sites.
  4. Under Allowed, you'll see all the websites that can send notifications to you. Turn off the toggle next to a website to stop receiving notifications from it. The website will appear under Blocked.
  5. You can enable the toggle anytime to resume notifications from a website.

If you don't want to receive notifications from certain websites in the future, you can also remove them completely. Tap the Delete option in the top right corner, select the websites you want to remove, and tap Delete.

2. Modify Notification Categories

Another way to stop unwanted notifications from the Samsung Internet browser is by modifying notification categories for the app. This allows you to block notifications by their type. Follow these steps:

  1. Open the Samsung Internet app on your phone.
  2. Tap the menu icon (three horizontal lines) in the bottom right corner and select Notifications.
  3. Tap the three-dot menu icon in the upper right corner and choose Notification settings.
  4. Go to Notification categories and use the toggles to disable notifications for downloads, media, promotions, and more.
  5. Optionally, tap on each notification category to further customize it, such as alert type and app icon badges.

3. Disable Notifications Entirely

If you prefer not to receive any notifications from the Samsung Internet app, you can disable them entirely. Here's how:

  1. Long press on the Samsung Internet app icon and tap on the info icon.
  2. On the app info page, tap Notifications.
  3. Toggle off the switch next to Show notifications.

And that's it! You won't receive any notifications from the Samsung Internet app on your phone.

Block the Unwanted

Browser notifications can be both useful and annoying. While they can keep you updated with your favorite websites, they can also fill your notification panel with unwanted ads or spam. It's important to audit the notifications you receive and stop the unwanted ones.

The methods described above will allow you to stop unwanted notifications from the Samsung Internet app, either partially or entirely. Take control of your notifications and enjoy a more peaceful browsing experience.
