discuss How do manage your smartphone's notification?

Hearing of notification sounds repeatedly gives me a lot of anxiety as it makes me uncomfortable. It's why I don't leave my smartphone's notification on for any reason whatsoever. It's either the notification is on silent or I put my phone in DND (Do Not Disturb).

How do manage your smartphone's notification?

The notifications from essential contacts and applications is my top priority but the less important notifications on my phone are put on silence.

I use DND (Do Not Disturb) when I don't want any kind of interruption in what I'm doing especially when I'm working on a sensitive project or when I want to sleep.

Other than that, I will just reduce the volume of my notification sound so it doesn't annoy me too much for being loud.

Most applications on my phone has no permission for notifications, although I left exceptions for instant communication tools such as messaging apps and email apps..

Except for the apps that I use for my work, Discord or email app for instance, I keep notification off for post apps, including social media.

At the moment I have a lot of notifications coming through on my phone and it can be a little too much. I will be when I get some time going through all my apps and turning off notifications I do not want to receive as I feel that when I get too many, it tends to override ones that are important and I need to attend to.

I manage my smartphone notifications by prioritizing what matters—essential apps like messages and emails stay on, while social media gets muted. I tweak settings to filter out noise, using "Do Not Disturb" mode during focus time or sleep. It’s all about keeping the chaos in check without missing the important stuff!

My emails and important apps' notifications stay on no matter what, but other notifications aren't. I'd rather not have a bunch of notifications blowing up my phone when they're not important.
