In this guide, we will show you the steps to disable system notifications on your Android device. There are some aspects of a smartphone that stands right there at the top of the pecking order but doesn’t get the appreciation it deserves. Notifications surely fall into that domain. It is hard to imagine how difficult would our task have been if it weren’t for these handy popups. But in some instances, they could be a little bit hard to digest and rather end up infuriating the end-users.
These notifications could be broadly categorized into two segments. The first one is from the user-installed apps such as WhatsApp, Facebook, and the likes. On the other hand, the next set compromises of system notifications.

And it is this second set of notifications that is generally a cause of the problem.

But even then there does exist a handy way to disable these system notifications on your Android device. The option is baked so deep inside the device’s settings menu that it might take ages for some to find this option. But fret not, this guide is here to help you out. Given here are the detailed instructions along with the required screenshots that shall help you achieve this task. Follow along.
